4690k OC Question

1) 4.4ghz @ 1.190v Vcore / 44 Cache Multiplier @ 1.270v Uncore.

I'm not sure about raising the uncore voltage just to bring the cache to a 1:1 ratio. Anything lower than this voltage is not stable.

 

2) 4.4ghz @ 1.190v Vcore / 39 Cache Multiplier @ 1.150v Uncore.

This one is rock stable.

 

So I suppose the question is this:

 

Which would be best? Is it even worth my time, stability, and heat, to raise the Uncore? Any 4690k OC tips are welcomed.

 

This is the one thing that really eludes me... what to do with the Cache Ratio?

honestly not a clue but, .1 Ghz isn't going to rock your world, i would keep it stable unless you got some time to kill. after 4.3 i know our cpu's need more vcore voltage than it did at 4.3( ie 4.3 @ 1.5 then 4.4 @ 1.2 volts. ) what are temps? are they good? from what i read it should make it more stable but, i would like keep you "rock stable" one. its all personal.

Temps are decent, but with the Uncore raised... the system feels funny. That's the best way to describe it. Everything feels a bit off.

you can (not always) have stability problems if your cache (uncore) speed is lower then your CPUs speed , I've always kept it equal or higher then my CPUs speed

Please quote me or tag me if your trying to talk to me , I might see it through all my other notifications ^_^
