Sorry about the late reply. Yeh we'll I read 80 odd percent of 4770s should be stable at 4.5 hence why I wanted to hit it. But I have delid ding on my agenda right now. That along with the EK Supremacy Naked mounting kit. When I can get this done I hope I can hit higher clocks. Just a fun fact...

I've managed to get the overclock survive 10 runs on IBT on high but when I setup the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility for a CPU stress test, 8 hours at some point it BSOD. So I'm confused. How come it survives the IBT but not the IXTU test?

Thank you for the response. After 10 hours I finally managed to stabilise a 4.5GHz with a voltage at 1.285 volts. My current Processor Cache Ratio is at 4300MHz with the voltage at 1.250 volts. I'm in he process of lowering the voltage step by step now. I can't raise the cache multiplier anymore...

Thank you for the help! I've just downloaded intel burn test so will give that a run in a minute if I can get stable on 4.5GHz. Currently had to up the voltage to 1.275v. Well only time will tell!

Ah thanks for the help! Just curious, how far were you able to get before you couldn't post? And what temp should I stop at? 80 degrees? Edit: quick update, BSOD at 4.5GHz with my voltage at 1.26v. Trying 1.27v now.

Hey, I'm no cooling expert but i have two R9 290 in crossfire water cooled. Today I overclocked them both to 1100MHz core clock and 1350MHz memory. I didn't see my temps to over 57 degrees and I think I still have room to push. So that's just an idea for you.

We'll temperature shouldn't be I hope as I'm using a custom loop I built a few weeks ago. I've only just got round to overclocking my components so yeh.ah what temps do you get with your voltage at 1.4? At the moment this PC seems hit and miss lol. 10 minutes into Aida64 at 4.4GHz at 1.25v...

Holy crap. That much voltage? Lol guess I'm scared haha.i just set it to 4.4GHz at 1.2 volts with a BSOD in minutes into windows. Trying 1.25 volts now. Any tips on the voltage and how I go about adjusting them?

Hey guys! I'm a novice at overclocking and tonight I finally decided two overclock my chip. So I started easy with the overclock. 4.2GHz 30 min Prime95. No issues. I ran some other bits and did some googling on how to proceed from here. At this point I only adjusted the multiplier and the core...

Well thank you all for the help :).

So last night, I switched from Google Chrome to Firefox as I thought it was either Chrome or Skype causing the issue as they are the only programs running 24/7. So from 5am till now, 5pm, my RAM went from 3.9GB usage to 4.0GB usage. So it was Chrome cause the obscene usage. Any ideas why? Anyone...

Right so I'm back with an update on the situation. At the worst, when I made this thread, my RAM usage was at 100% constantly and my PC crashed. A reboot returned the usage to 3.8GB. I left my computer running last night and this afternoon came to find the usage at around 8GB. I thought I would...

This is beyond a joke now. My PC feels useless. I had to reboot but my RAM is constantly at 32GB meaning everything is crashing and lagging and unusable. I really need a fix for this please.

I found out that the GPU has over 16GB of shared memory which is making my system overall sluggish in games. Any idea how i can fix this? EDIT: Games are starting to crash and programs are crashing in my OS cause of the lack of RAM. I really need help with this please. Its making it impossible...
