Hello, I am a beginner to cpu overclocking. I did some researches and carried on the overclock on my cpu.
cpu multiplier -> 40
cpu ring -> auto
cpu voltage -> 1.025 + 0.750 offset (adaptive)
intel c-state -> off
and everything else you can assume that I have it as default (prob in auto)
I currently have a stock cooler
but for some reason on my bios, not only the temp is exceeding 90+ and very often 100
and most importantly my voltage on my bios says its 1.8--v . where -- varies.
Am i doing something wrong?
There is no tutorial or guide specific to evga z97 ftw so I just followed asus mobo's guide.
What's even funnier is that on stock's default setting I get this when I run the prime95 test.
is it just that i just got a faulty cpu?.. =[
Please help Thank you!
=[UPDATE]==================================
here is how it looks like in my bios and my bios version is up to date.
My room temperature is <15C always. I got 3 extra fans on my case to promote better air flow.
Am i missing something?
