Hello all! I know I have a very old CPU and it bottlenecks my setup, but still wanted to ask why do I get constant crashes after I overclock even a bit, while my temperatures are very good. Also, I'm pretty noob at OC.
My setup is the following:
i7 4790k
AMD RX 6700 XT
4x8GB Corsair Vengeance 1333MHz (rated 2400MHz)
MoBo ASUS Maximus Ranger VII
PSU Corsair CX750 Bronze
I use Arctic MX 4 for thermal compound
CPU Cooler Coolermaster 212 EVO
I tried a LOT of different setups, but can't manage to reach 4.5GHz without the occasional crash. The most "stable" I achieved to run it is like this:
Core Multiplier at 45 (to achieve 4.5GHz)
RAM speed at 2666MHz
Voltage set to adaptive with + symbol
Cache voltage set to adaptive with + symbol
With these settings, and running HeavyLoad stressing bot CPU and GPU, I reach a top 72C temp, which in theory is really good. The stress test passes (left it for around 30 min), but occasionally will crash as well. Games with high requirements will also make my computer crash eventually.
When trying to set my voltage to manual, I tried different setups, but no matter what I try it always crashes on the stress test.
Can anyone help me? What am I doing wrong?
