Devil's Canyon (Haswell refresh) overclocking?

[ValorZeroAdvent]

So, I have my 4690k running at 4.2ghz at 1.13v. I've been wondering if I should push it a bit further though.. I have the hyper 212x cooler and I use intel burn test for stress testing. Highest temp is 70c on hottest core.

http://valid.canardpc.com/ch6wu5 - a few days ago but CS:GO apparently doesn't like low voltages. Caused a error 124 bsod.

What's your overclock?

 

[ondooy]

go aio water cooling, then push it further...

running at 4.5ghz at less than 1.25 (forgot exact). you have a lot of room

Nah, this system's plenty cool at the moment and I feel that I would be better off spending my money on something else at the moment. I'd be okay with 4.2ghz (mostly gaming and a bit of video editing), but for kicks maybe 4.4 GHz someday.

What's the temps of your chip when stress testing?


Anyway, I was wondering, will too low a voltage kill the cpu in the long run, or is it high voltage and high temps?

If I could, I would undervolt and get the highest clock that I could get at that voltage, but eh.

 

[sglords]

Change input voltage to 1.73v see will bsod or not.

If stable, may wan to lower it to within 0.4-0.6v of ur vcore.
If still crash/bsod/hang, add more vcore.

If wan 4.5ghz and test temperature, can try 1.17-1.18 vcore. But recommend to keep ur cpu cool

Finished testing use adaptive voltage and enable eist and c states to save power and idle when not running application

My setting
4.5ghz core 1.165v offset 0.005
4.3ghz uncore 1.135v offset 0.005
Vccin 1.76

4.5 @ 1.21v with h100i

 

[ValorZeroAdvent]

Heh, strange. The minimum voltage that core temp seems to be displaying is 1.1116v. I adjusted vcore to around 1.04v (1.05 vcore still displays 1.1116v).and input voltage to 1.75v (1.73v will cause bsod when stress testing). Would test the voltages with hwmonitor later.

if i not wrong is around 70c plus when stress test

u using manual or adaptive?
adaptive will show higher than what you set when stress testing.

check e correct value vcore at cpu-z
as long as dun go over 2.1v on vccin will do. ideal range is 0.4-0.6 abv vcore

 

[Mikiberry]

For some reason, adaptive mode tends to add 0.1-0.13 on the vcore when doing adaptive testing.

because of avx programs will cause higher voltage than wad u set in adaptive.
stress test on manual finished then change to adaptive.

 

[alifffresto]

manual first. everything stable then can go change to adaptive.

PS: ps, sglords already posted the same thing.

 

[twist_shout]

whats the furthest u guys have push this chip on stock cooling???

Adaptive. At the moment I'm sticking with 1.75v vccin and around 1.13v vcore.

 

[sglords]

looks good

looks good

Bro ur voltage is considered normal? Mine 1.20 bosd on stress test.

If you're talking to me, which I highly doubt though, how high did you overclock?
