is this good?

Go to solution Solved by Faceman,

Uhh i Don't really know ..... but i just crashed on the 2nd test on P95 so i changed the plyer to 43 and testing right now

oh and i use 4 workers i dk if that is good or not

Yup, 4 workers is correct.

 

Make sure that when stress testing, you have your CM 212 EVO running at 100%!!!  This is very important while stress testing, while doing everything else, you can lower it, but for stress testing, it needs to be at max speed.

 

What you can try doing is: x44 -- 1.250v.  I wouldn't go higher than 1.275v for x44.  Even at 1.275v you are going to hit 100C while running Prime95, so I would try and keep below that.  1.275v while gaming(BF4) won't be nearly as bad, it will likely be in the high 60s to low 70s.  You want to try and keep your temperatures below 85C.  So 1.275v for gaming is perfectly ok, I used to do that for awhile.  You can check out my Cooler Master 212 EVO Review w/ Statistics Here.

I don't know how to OC an iGPU.  You don't have a dedicated GPU?

 

Start lowering your voltage for the x43 and keep lowering it until you get a BSOD, then bump it back up to the last stable voltage.  That is your overclock for 4.3Ghz.

nah i only have a HD5450 but untill i get my R9 290 am just using the IGPU

 

i finished a 21min stress test finally with no problems but imma do that right now gunna bump it down to 1.220V

but tomorrow am done for today :P

Not sure if you saw what the person said in your original thread, but the iGPU on your i5-4670k beats the HD Video card you have.

 

Stick with the iGPU, but don't overclock it.  Overclocking the IGPU wont give you very good results, maybe 3fps, and it is not worth it to put additional heat and strain on the CPU that is already overclocked.

 

Just wait it out using the iGPU until you can afford a dedicated GPU.  Check Craigslist, don't be afraid of used cards as long as they work, but test them thoroughly before buying.
