Average Haswell Overclock?

[jonn.]

 

Currently Validating my cache frequency 3hrs in on Intel XTU:

 

Chip: 4690k

Core: 4.7ghz

Vcore: 1.23v

Vrin: 1.900

Cache: 4.4ghz

Cache Voltage: 1.23v

Dram Freq: 1866mhz

VDram: 1.5v (Specified by manufacturer)

 

What has passed an 14hr XTU Stress test:

Core: 4.7ghz

Vcore: 1.23

Vrin: 1.900

Cache: 3.9

Cache Voltage: [Auto]

Dram Freq: 1866mhz

Vdram: [Auto] (Was going around 1.65)

Average Temps: 66 C *on a Dark Rock Pro 3 with only center fan installed*

 

First time overclocking and there from what I can see most people have voltages around 1.3~ to keep stable at 4.7ghz So wondering If I'm doing anything wrong?

[ViruZ_HUN]

You got a amazing chip man.

 

If you higher the voltage to 1.3 you have a chance for the glorious 5 ghz!!

Do take a look at this guide though: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/41234-intel-haswell-4670k-4770k-overclocking-guide/

 

4.7GHz @1.23V is very saucy.

no your doing fine overclocking has to do with the silicon lottery, you got a better cheap that is more stable without the need of greater voltage. So your doing just fine.

Amazing overclock, wish i where mine

Yeah Read through the entire thing, and following it through like a bible, except he talks about ALOT higher voltages being normal so was kind of worried

Better Cheap?

Hahaha I might try to get there later on but really liking my max of 70C on air hahaha

Higher voltages are very useful for records. 

Thread when you find a stable: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/62476-post-your-cinebench-r15r1152003-scores-over-250-submissions/

You should defo get your score on there.

Also since I updated bios, Intel XTU has only been showing "Processor Frequency 0.00ghz" and "Active Core Count 1" so using cpu-z to validate anyone know a fix?

 downlaod the latest xtu and reinstall it

 

it has happened to me as well

I overclocked my friend's cpu once. Achieved around the same.

I did still same problem

[ProKoN]

I did still same problem

what board?

 

maybe try an older version. the msi version has worked well for me in the past any board. asus and gigabyte included

 

http://www.msi.com/support/mb/Z87-MPOWER.html#down-utility&Win7%2064

 

cant remembered what i did to get it working again. i did do a fresh install of windows and problem was gone. not the most ideal solution i know

[jslane21]

I just ordered a pent I'm for my brothers rig I'm gonna try my hand at over clicking that before I move onto my 4790k but for not the boost clock of 4.4 is fine enough for me.

[jonn.]

I'm using a MSI z97 Krait edition windows 8.1

yeah not planning to do a fresh install, well it's not a big deal i guess, don't think i'll need to use XTU after I finish my OC hahaha

[Legitsu]

I would't exceed 1.350 ever not for anything outside benching

 

not unless you want a dead chip inside a year or two ... 

people don't get it that it doesn't matter how cool you keep Haswell beyond 1.30v you start doing real damage ...  if you can't hit your target clocks at <1.30V anyway then your chip is poo and there is little sense pushing it more 

Haswell is different fundamentally so take anything you know about clocking and throw it out the window 

*guy in the blue shirt is a intel engineer*

Anybody that tells people that >1.30v is "safe" doesn't know what they are talking about 

[ProKoN]

I would't exceed 1.35v ever not for anything outside benching

Ive been on the platform since launch.  yes intel suggests more sensible voltages. I have validated otherwise

 

you may want to contact some people if your concern is genuine.  many people exceed 1.3V

I know people that have run 1.55v for >5Ghz but running for benching and running for daily use are two entirely different things if you don't understand the difference please don't continue to speaking 

you show me a group of people that has the voltage over 1.35 and is still running it at that voltage after a year without degradation and ill retract my statement 

also the top 3 highest voltages in that table are either delids or extreme cooling 

the intel rep states at 20:20 in that video that +/- 10% is the general rule which given the avg stock VID of most chips works out to be about 1.3v

is this a discussion or are you trying to criticize me? "dont continue to speaking"

 

 

 

anything you ask for i can produce.  you want validation. please ask

 

maybe look on the worlds largest overclocking website and see how many people are benchmarking haswells at 1.35V

 

i start the binning process at 1.4V.

 

think outside the box, just dont "look inside"

[Acerpwns]

i was able to get my 4690k at 4.6 stable at 1.225v
Proof: http://imgur.com/faVbFTX

[ProKoN]

most DC chips achieve 4.5-4.8ghz at reasonable voltages 1.35v or less. non refresh haswell chips are a different story.

again benching != ok for 24/7 

I could give two shits what people run for a one shot benching session the reality is it would never be safe for long term use not even under a full custom water loop + delid 

I read hwbot daily I know what people are pushing for 

[ProKoN]

again bench-marking != ok for 24/7

what do you know about either? did you watch a youtube video and figured it was the only "end all be all"

 

i dont see any of your submissions \ tutorials or validations on this or any other website?

 

all of my 24\7 stable settings have been recorded in the ocdb

 

the verified oc's are indicated with a purple stamp

 

a second ago you said 1.35v was max for benching, now you say its ok to exceed for benching lol do you even bench bro? ( way to go for the edit. should have taken a SS)

 

im up for any challenge you propose

[jonn.]

I just achieved a:

Core: 4.7ghz

Cache: 4.2ghz

Vcore: 1.23v

VCache: 1.23v

Vccin: 1.900v

 

DRAM Freq: 1866

Dram Voltage: 1.5v

 

Max Temperature: 70 c

Average: ~66 c

 

Stable past 8hrs, Seeing if it will last atleast 12hrs.

 

I plan to put it some sort of Cstate power saving settings, however through reading people have said that enabling Auto C-state causes latency issues? and enabling c6/c7 (Not sure what they mean tbh) is the best?
