Hi ! I'm running 3770k with everything at stock on BIOS except XMP profile, CM 212 Evo, 2 1000RPM 140MM fans in the case (fractal design r4), and arctic silver 5
recently i did run Prime95 and did reach 65degrees and then slowly going up to 70, CPU-Z says the core runs at 3.9GHz, are these temps a bit high?
 
Other specs :
Samsung 830 128GB
Asus Z77 V-Pro
Corsair 16GB Vengeance LP 1600Mhz
Corsair GS 800W
a old 7200RPM Hard drive
LG 24X Dvd burner
 
It now did a BSOD with Internal_Power_error, i did however press the power button when the screen wasn't responding just to see a BSOD, someone help me? 🙁
 
Can't delete or edit posts on this forum, anyway scratch the BSOD, it's a hibernating error that happens when there's too much data to store that's being used by RAM (which is 100% on this test), anyway should i lower the voltage? or what's the problem.
 

Is 1.3V the default on your chip or did you override it?

The normal load voltages are usually in the 1.15-1.25 range but the VID tables can vary from chip to chip, maybe you got one that has unusually high settings.
 
It's on auto, i guess Asus Z77 V-Pro boards prefer to have higher voltages? I dunno, should i lower it? also does 1.3Voltage mean +20 heat in Ivy Bridge?
 
i did a prime 95 on my i5 2500K, i OC it to 4.2 ghz, at stock volts, at 1.28v,

ivy bridge OC at a higher temps compared to sandy bridge, 65 to 70C at 1.3v is still ok

change the multiplier to 4.2ghz...
 
Okay, new into OCing, so exactly what should i change except the multiplier? i've heard some people disable turbo boost and so on...
 
Voltage is on auto and jumping, shall i set it to something that stays the same? It does reach 1.3010 volt on Burn test, which accordingly to people you can clock 4.5GHz with this voltage, and 4.7 with 1.320, shall i change the voltage?
 

Mileage varies from chip to chip, there is no guarantee that your chip will be able to match others' under identical conditions. It may fare better but may also fare worse.
 
let me tell u, the most safest OC is 4.2 ghz... 4.2 can be done with stock volts... if u want 4.7 then, u hv to do rounds and rounds of stablising testing
 
It's not stock though, it keeps jumping, and goes as high as 1.3010, which means the temps can go 80degrees on load, shall i lower it or not, but do i really need that high voltage? >_>
 
1.3 at all 4 cores + 8threads on 100%, reaches 74-79degrees depending on core, should i lower the voltage to 1.2 manually? and clock to 4.2
 
Did read about OCing and they mention speedstep tech and stuff like that, shall i ignore that OC to 4.2 and set voltage and then ready to go? Instead of doing a deep OC?
 
Edit : I changed voltage to 1.2 and Multiplier to 42, the Idle temps are higher now though, is this normal? or is itc caused by something like speedstep?
CPU-Z Reads 1.192V while core temp says VID: 1.3010 and even 1.3060 randomly?
