Hello everyone!
I finally take the decision to overclock my 4770k, although some questions come across as usual. Let's start with my Specs
Cpu: i7 4770k
Cpu fan: Noctua NH-U14S
Mobo: Gigabyte z87xud4h
Ram: 16gb corsair vengeance 1600 (4gb*4)
Gpu: msi 1070 gaming X
Case: Corsair 400R
Psu: Coolermaster 850 silent pro M
Ssd: Samsung 840 pro 128gb
Hdd: Caviar black 640 sata II
Hdd: Caviar black 640 sata II
Hdd:Caviar black 1Tb sata III
Sound: Soundblaster x-fi titanium fatality
Monitor: Dell ultrasharp U2414H
Os: Win 7 ultimate 64bit
This is my first OC with haswell but i manage to OC my 4770k to 4.3Ghz with 1.22v.
What i change:
1)set cpu base clock to manual
2)set cpu clock ratio to 43
3)set cpu v core to 1.22v
4)set XMP to profile 1,(also set dram voltage to 1.5v and timings manually to 8-8-8-24 for both channels just to be sure)
5)disable turbo boost,C1E,C3,C6/C7,EIST
(I set them again to auto AFTER the OC except of turbo boost)
6)disable Intel Processor Graphics
Everything else was auto.
I was using Prime95 ver 28.5 with small FFT's and the temps was too high, above 90c in the first minute.
Then i saw this: {Please Read}

I download Prime95 ver 26.6 , set it again to small FFT's and after 45 minutes with 0 errors and 0 warnings max temp was 69C !
I also run intel burn test V2.54 with stress level at standard, times to run 10, with max temp of 79C.
Ambient temp for both tests was 15C.
The questions are:
A) Do i believe the Prime95 ver 26.6 temps?
B) If Prime95 ver 26.6 temps are true are this temps ok?
C) If A and B are yes means my OC is stable?
Thank you in advance for your time dear experts, I respect your opinions and your knowledge!!!
