Hi folks.
I bought a new CPU, 4670K, and MB, Maximus VI Impact, this week.
When running o stock clock and with Turbo Boost I'm getting horrible temperatures when running IntelBurnTest or Prime, over 90º. I've saw that the VCORE goes over 1.25V on Turbo Boost and that's probably why It gets so hot.
I've tried working on VCORE and clocks to get a good over with a decent temperature, but It ain't working.
The lowest I'm getting at the moment is keeping it at 3.8 and with VCORE at 1,14. It's stable at this config and temps won't pass 85º. Again, I'm aware that this is not a good temperature, since I'm using a H100 with 2 NOCTUAs on it.
Tried changing the thermal past twice and all, but the temps stay the same.
On "Idle" it stays at 40º C or so, but on full load it goes to 84º on one core, while the lowest stay at 71º or so.
The question is:
What BIOS settings I can change to make it stay cooler? Is there a way to change other settings to be able to lower my VCORE and stay stable? I'm asking this since Turbo Boost get's so unecessary VCORE, maybe other AUTO SETTINGS are pushing the temp without need. Or, should i RMA this CPU?
The current build is the following:
i5 4670K @ 3.8Ghz with 1.14 VCORE (Other settings on AUTO) (H100 with 2 Noctuas on pull)
ASUS Maximus VI Impact (Last BIOS)
2x4GB Corsair Dominator GT at 2000Mhz (They are 2000Mhz)
PSU XFX850 Pro Black Edition
128GB Vertex 4 + 1TB SATA II Samsung HDD
Corsair 650D case with 2 Noctua fans, front 140mm push and 120mm on the back on pull (I know, funny to use a MITX on that tower, but I'll change soon)
Thanks a lot!
