[SOLVED] Do I have a "golden chip"? Overclocking 9900k Progress

Your voltage is too high, you risk damage.
Silicon lottery bins processors and sells the better ones for a price premium.
Their top binned chip runs at 5.1 and a voltage of 1.312. Only 11% of chips tested do this.

I really think you should stay under 1.4v.

After all, the 9900K is a beast; how much do you really need a few more multipliers?

That's going to be a black burnt chip or a flaming red chip soon.
