You'll need to increase the voltage. But naturally that's something you have to be more careful about.

by how much?

Impossible to say, it depends on your chip. Some require more voltage than others.

Well the stock says something like 1.185 I believe and I started at 1.105 at went up to 1.120 +005 increments and then it crashed so I went back down. I should be going past this ?1.130 or something?

You can't expect to undervolt and oc much. Stock is usually where you start off at and try at least 1.2 or so. Although your cooler will be the issue if you are already hitting 69c undervolting. What do you have, the stock cooler?

I have the Hyper 212 or something: COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 EVO I haven't changed any fan settings in bios

I don't know much about under or over volting

Any Help Please? Maybe its bios settings I'm hearing all different opinions on what to set and what not to...

You obviously need more but no one can tell you how much. We don't have your pc, it's part of the cpu lottery. You can't think you can increase speed above stock and decrease vcore below stock.

I'm lost with the voltages it crashes too low and too high is this right? Any guide you can recommend?

 

[k1114]

What are you setting it to?

OC3D has this guide, which should help. They're using a 3770K and a slightly different motherboard (still Gigabyte though), but most of it should still apply for your situation.

Thanks for the help I will look at the guide.... I was able to get it to 4.2 with 1.25v running a few hours with prime top temp was 80.
