I overlocked my cpu to 4.2 on 1.1V and i only changed the cpu core clock and the cpu core voltage, should i have changed other settings? or just these two? my temps while running prime 95 are 65-75C

asus p8 z77 v pro

i5 3570k

hyper 212 evo

its super easy just put 4 clocks on it and you'll get a 4Ghz overclock

i put 4.2 is thats what your talking about, is 1.1 a good voltage for 4.2?

It's pretty obvious that it's celsius :D Anyway, ivy-bridge will be totally fine with 1,2 or even 1,3 volts. (more volts means basically more heat output and stability)

4,2GHz seems very good for 1,1 volts. I'm not experienced with ivy-brige overclocking, but you might wanna try 1,2 volts and 4,3 or 4,4GHz.

 

You also might want to try increasing cache multiplier. It will propably do 4,0 or 4,1GHz nicely, but when ovecklocking the cores higher

than that, leaving the cache multiplier to 4,2 or 4,1 might improve stability. Watching some oc'ing tutorials on youtube the helped me with my oc.

 

If I said something incorrect, please correct me. And good luck with you oc, it's ain't easy to brake that CPU (needs somehing like 1,5 volts), so you can experiment with it pretty safely :)

Intel i7-4770K temperatures with stock cooler:

                 (CPU usage % + 100)/2

i have no idea what the cache multiplier is O.o i'll look into it i guess

It propably says it there. Usually under the CPU core ratio multipliers.
