I need help with my 4670k overclock.

[cvalencia]

I just finished my first build 3 weeks ago. I have a i5-4670K, H100i, and an Asus Z87-Plus MoBo. I am quite new to overclocking so I decided to use Asus' 4-Way Optimization as a safe way of doing it. It was able to OC all the way to 4.7 Ghz. I then launched the Aida 64 stress test just to see if it's stable. The first few seconds went by and the voltage on my CPU went all the way up to 1.407 Volts! The way they described it in the YouTube video tutorial of the 4-Way Optimization, the core voltage should not go up more than 1.275 V. As you can from the image below, Aida 64 is telling that there's CPU Overheating due to the increase of voltage (1.407 volts!)

 

I am quite lost guys. I really need help with this.

What's your loadline calibration setting?

 

 

I'd recommend doing the OC yourself, it's not that hard.

CPU Load Line Calibration at Level 8.

 

CPU Core Voltage set to ADAPTIVE

CPU Load Line Calibration at Level 8.

 

CPU Core Voltage set to ADAPTIVE

Reset to stock settings.

 

Set bclk to 125mhz

Set CPU multiplier to x36 (this should give you 4.5ghz)

Set vcore to 1.24v

 

 

See what this does.

I will give this a try. Do I need to clear the CMOS to undo the automatic OC of my CPU (4-Way Optimization)?

I'd say its cuz you have voltage set on adaptive. I know I heard it mentioned that some stress programs will actually go over what the adaptive limit is.

 

i'm pickin up most of my new rig minus a videocard tomorrow morn.  4770k, z87 deluxe, FD r4, HX850, 16gb hyper x beast 2400mhz

 

Cant wait....

 

My current rig .. q6600 @ 3.5, 8gb ddr3, Rampage Extreme, 2 Asus DK 4870 (Crossfire)....is still a beast. Will be a great HTPC or secondary.

I would recommend a CMOS reset to clear all the settings and uninstall AI Suite 3 to reset the settings: http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?id=20130701184711527&board_id=1&model=Z87-PLUS&page=1&SLanguage=en-us
