i kind of found that out when i replaced the motherboard for a bad ethernet.... corsair puts way too much thermal paste on.... i replaced my with ic diamond and that helped alot

good luck anyway :P. remember try to keep it around the 72c max, thats the tcase and you will start to degrade it after that.

I have a 4790k running at about 4.7ghz with 1.328v with no higher than 80c on temps.... it crashed once at about 4 minutes in but its stay somewat stable now. Average temps are about 70c using aida64.

 

thanks

 

it just crashed should i up the voltage anymore? what can a 4790k take with out damaging it?

seems pretty damn good but personally i dont like to have my voltage too high, my 4690k sits at around 4.8ghz at that voltage so i dropped it back off to 4.6ghz.

 

edit- if it crashed up it to 1.35v, you  can go higher but you will shorten the life span and its not worth it, why have you overclocked so far btw?

I would tone it down to 4.6 at least, that voltage is very high IMO, and 4minutes for a crash isn't exactly good.

Voltage down by some, frequency down by more.

 

Spoiler

Case Bitfenix Ghost, Mobo Asus Maximus VIII Ranger, CPU i7 6700K @4.2 Ghz cooled by Arctic cooling Freezer i30, (barely). GPU Nvidia GTX 970 Gigabyte G1 @1519Mhz core, RAM 16Gb Crucial Ballistix CL16 @2400Mhz. SSD 128GB Sandisk Ultra Plus as my OS drive. HDD's  1TB  Seagate ST31000524AS its OEM, 3TB Seagate Barracuda, 2x 500GB WDC Blue (RAID 0)

If it isn't working absolutely perfectly, according to all your assumptions, it is broken.

I agree with @arronleeds bump up the multiplier a little bit more and leave the same voltage. If it's already stable and increasing the multiplier made it unstable, then it a good OC.

 

Edit: Yeesh, 4 minutes for a crash is not good. Tone it down a bit.

so thats about my limit as far as my processor goes... im going to switch it out with another one to see if it performs better.... this one i have now is a tad strange with temps.

If you are getting temps anywhere over 65C tone it down, or get a better cooler. You can damage your parts by running them at that high of a tempature for long periods of time.

thats incorrect since the the tcase is 74c, but around the 80c mark is the highest id wanna see mine.

I'm gonna shut down....and put this other 4790k in to see how it performs.

bro you dont need it at 4.8ghz, you do know its rarely going to happen with a 4790k dont you? 4.6ghz is plenty enough.

I am aware of that its just i have already got this other processor due to the temps being so high earlier on so im gonna try it out.... might as well

If you're not delidding, i'd not go over 1.3V.

temps are high because youre putting 1.32v on it.

 

mine hits 72c at that voltage.

 

room temp of around 19.5c.

the high temps were before i even overclocked anything is why i ordered another

ahhh i see, thats not usually due to the chip though, more the cooler.

i kind of found that out when i replaced the motherboard for a bad ethernet.... corsair puts way too much thermal paste on.... i replaced my with ic diamond and that helped alot

good luck anyway :P. remember try to keep it around the 72c max, thats the tcase and you will start to degrade it after that.
