The kid wants to play Apex Legends, requires an FX-4350 @ 4.2. I got a free FX-4100, and it works, but FPS can drop. Using Gigabytes old bios, I found some tutorials online, changed all the settings as they said, added .050 volts and turned the chip up from 3.6 to 4.0. I ran realbench for a bit, got 4028mhz @ 54 degrees @ 1.376V. Good enough for now, but I think I'd like a little more cooler before I go for 4.2
Last night, I ran CPUID while she was actually playing the game. I got 57 degrees on the package, 90 degrees on the cores (!). That's 90C. Is that even possible? Volts came up to 1.472 on the VCORE (that's the one I'm changing, yes?) which I'm ok with, and CPU clocks were all close to 4028, but scattered around a bit instead of all 4 being the same.
This is my first try at OCing an AMD chip, before this I've only messed around with a 2500k (success) and a 4790k (doesn't really need the OC) and I only got .2 out of it before my volts went way high, so I turned it down and gave up.
What am I missing here?
