Hi!
I want to ask you if 1.283V is too high for turbo mode in i7 4790k. (stock 4.0, turbo 4.4)
I saw that some people had 1.25v at 4.6 Ghz so i want to know if I can lower it.
 
Solution
I suspect it is either how good your cpu cooler is or the 'silicon lottery' My experience is limited to using the Gigabyte EasyTune software on a Gigabyte z97 MB. It came up stable at 4.8 GHz on 1.25 volts....this seems pretty low for vcore since EasyTune has a reputation for high vcore values. Mebbe I just got lucky!
