Overheating?

5 minutes ago, 5Liquid5 said:

Ok i set it to 1.2v and its booting.

alright, now get something like Aida64 and run a stress test for 10-15 minutes to see if it's stable and see what temps it gets up to, if it starts getting hotter then 90 but is still stable then go back to the BIOS and start dropping the voltage, ideally you wanna be no higher then high 70's low 80's after 15 minutes in Aida64, this will translate to even lower temps in gaming. but ultimately it will come down to how low can you take your voltage and still be stable.

Ok, should i leave xmp disabled?

I would turn it on cause you want to run it daily with it on but i would turn the VCCSA to 1.15v and VCCIO to 1.10v

I didn't, I use the XMP profile for my RAM.

just take you time and work your CPU voltage down. be prepared to spend several hours doing this and don't freak out if the computer hangs or fails to boot, once you fail to boot you know you've gone to low and need to bump it back up, infact thats where I would start, boot the computer, if it boots, shut down and lower the voltage, then boot the computer again, as long as you boot to windows keep lowering the voltage, once you don't boot bump it back up to the last voltage you booted at then run the Aida64, if it crashes then bump the voltage up by .005v and reboot and run Aida64 again and keep doing that till it's stable in Aida64, it will probably be quicker that way then testing each step of the way down with Aida for 15 minutes.

Can you pls tell me the voltages step by step? I ren the stress test with 1.2v and its stable low 60 high 75, so what voltage should i type in now?

that's good 75c max for 8700k, next i would run at 1.195 then if that doesn't crash on a aida64 stress test for 10 mins turn it to 1.190 then 1.185 so on so forth 
also monitor your voltages and core clocks when stress testing make sure are what your expecting them to be

Those numbers are looking good, did enable XMP?

drop the core voltage to 1.175 and test again

Your temps are solid if you are only hitting 70 C ish after 15 minutes in Aida64 (remember you are on a liquid cooler it takes time for the temps to equalize) then you could consider bumping up the core clock, or at least "sync all cores" (this setting is further up on the same page where you are setting the CPU Core voltage) so all cores run at the same 4.7Ghz speed, you've clearly got room to work with temperature wise, no reason not to push for higher clocks.

 

but before you do that can you take a picture of this screen in Aida64 while it's running? https://goo.gl/images/1LQyjQ

I ren the last test on 1.180v and it was stable, now with xmp enabled and 1.175v it crashed after one sec.

okay that's what i was thinking was your XMP profile was the problem the whole time as your temps are only at 80'c during a stress test and you said it was like that gaming
look at VCCSA AND VCCIO in bios and change vcore back to 1.180 and run again see if you can boot and run a test

I can only see VCCIO can't find VCCSA.

If they are back to 1.232v I would change VCCSA to 1.150v and VCCIO to 1.100v and Vcore to 1.180v

hmmm okay I reckon if you disable xmp and put all voltages to auto you will be fine temp wise and run perfect, I think your xmp profile is weird what ram do you have?
