i5 4690K 4.3Ghz Overclock

[ericchee]

I've overclocked my i5 4690k to 4.3Ghz at 1.100V with a Hyper 212 EVO and I was wondering if there are any noticeable improvement from stock (3.5ghz) in term of gaming/editing. I've overclocked my CPU as soon as I bought it therefore I haven't really experienced a stock i5 4690k and the reason why I haven't went back is because ultra-fast boot change has made it difficult to enter into bios without having to reset etc

I have an i5 4690k overclocked to 4.5ghz at 1.2V with hyper 212 evo and I do see performance gains but mainly in games that are cpu heavy like dayz or arma

ah right I see, I might try 4.5Ghz myself what idle temps and max temps do you normally get when playing GPU intensive games??

Idle temps range from 30 to 35, and max temps using OCCT were 70C. Now as far as gpu intensive games, I can't really give my input there. But I recommend using OCCT as it will test your cpu to the max.

Thank you, I might go ahead and further OC
