I increased my base speed from the stock 3.4GHz to 3.8GHz. I also disabled core performance boost. Nothing else was changed. I left the voltages at auto.
The OC appears to be stable. I have run Prime95 several times, all without crashes, including a few sessions of "Small FFTs" for 10 minutes each time and a couple sessions of "Blend" for one hour each time.
My CPU temperature stays below 80 C during these stress tests.
Next I ran almost identical test runs in Battlefield V, one before the OC and one after the OC. Before the OC, my average FPS was 126. After the OC, my average FPS was only 122!? Hence, I actually lost 4 average FPS!?
Please advise.
