4.3GHz 0.035 Offset with 30 minute run time. Crashed at 0.25 and 0.30.

 

Gonna go to bed and continue tommorow. Will get to a 4.5GHz and run a 8 hour prime 95 test to make sure its stable.

Keep it auto. Take a look at my oc i got today. Look at the maximum temps. this is for an 4.5 ghz OC

less heat than mine. Just got to 4.4GHz but had to raise the voltage up alot more in comparison to the previous times. 

4.4GHz 0.1 Offset

Your temps are fine until you hit 85.

When overclocking you get many whea logger error in event viewer? They're a sign of instability right and i require more voltage?

Correct. i don't get it, but you may. i have over 50 hours of Stress testing on this chip.

Ok i was just making sure i was reading into correctly. Been putting my voltage up to stop the whea logger errors.

But, Dont let those bother you, as long as you pass P95 for 8 hours, your pretty much fine.

2 Hours Prime95 at 4.5Ghz.

 

For some reason the voltage spikes higher when not running prime95, sits at about 1.32v when running prime but i noticed it go up to 1.39-1.4. Is this normal?

 

I guess it's vdroop but if it's stable i guess i don't have to worry about it?

Those temps are absolute max for comfort. But other than that looks great. Run this: http://www.majorgeeks.com/mg/getmirror/intelburntest,1.html

 

Thats another harsh test. run it for about 10 min and report back with temps.

Those temps are SUPER  high. I get stressed out when mine passes 70 on stock. mines even delidded.but my ambient is like 30C. but if its stable and you don't mind those temps your good to go.

I mean i'll keep watching the temps whilst i use it. It's rarely gonna get to that temp in normal usage so i'm not really worried. Plus i doubt it's gonna cause any damage and i plan on upgrading long before it will degrade.

Okay, but keep in mind, any temps over 75C will degrade the cpu faster.
