How to change voltages?

[UltimateRob97]

Hello,
I have an i5 6600k and an asus z170a motherboard. How can i change voltages? it says cpu_ov must be activated or something like this?

also HW hardware says my max voltage is 1.286, is this good for a 4.4 ghz OC?
Thanks, Rob

Google 6600k overclocking guide, read 2-3 of these guides so you have a firm understanding of whats going on when you overclock.
Plus how to test and what not.

if you want to get a stable overclock to 4.4 you should rise the voltage to some what in the neighborhood of 1.420 to 1.442 but this depends on lots of things
I suggest that load back your optimal defaults then for each 100 MHz overclock rise your voltage with 0.010 to 0.020 and you should be fine
Also here is a guide that you can check

CPU_OV enables extremely high voltages that are only needed by people running liquid nitrogen or dry ice. You don't need to worry about it.

Just take thing up slowly abnd add voltage as needed - I wouldn't just be jumping to to 1.4whatever, you may get a stable OC but might be able to run same at 1.25 or so . In other words big jumps and you can end up running voltages much higher than needed - higher voltages mean higher heat which can cut the life of the CPU and cause stability problems
