Overclocking Voltages

[phongle123]

I'm not asking for help about Overclocking. I'm just asking some questions that I've seen and it seems weird.

 

My 1700x @4.0Ghz

1. @1.35v I can run all games just fine. Runs cinebench just fine @100%. Crashes when running cinebench + a game together @100%.

2. @1.3675v I can run all games + cinebench together just fine @100% and have never crashed doing stuff like this. Unstable in Realbench after 15m. (I kept this voltage as my default)

3. @1.38v It runs Reachbench just fine. Crashes a little after 1hr rendering in a real program not in Realbench.

 

At this point, I didn't wanna go to 1.4v so I just went down to 3.9Ghz. So that would mean that the real stable for my CPU @4.0Ghz is >1.38v?

 

I'm guessing I did it like most people where they overvoltage enough for the system to play all games + browser and other non-intensive stuff at the same time without crashing.
