Well.. it's a i5 760 so it's pretty old :P. It's at 4.0 now at 1.34V that's a hell of a lot compared to people getting 4.2 on 1.25V etc.

Open your eyes and break your chains. Console peasantry is just a state of mind.

try lowering the voltage to 1.275

looks like you lost the silicone lottery. Reduce your OC while keeping the voltage at 1.275

Why? The max safe is 1.4V

 

Do you want me to run the CPU at like 3.2 or something? I've run this cpu at 3.8 on 1.3V for months now, but I wanted to push it to 4.0

Some people even got 4.2

 

Remember this is a 1st gen quad core from 2011, overclocking was different back then  :D

 

Need to upgrade soon to Skylake!

so if 3.8 @ 1.3v worked put it back at that :P just because others got high OCs at low voltages doesn't mean you will.

Yeah but everything till 1.4V is safe right?
