hey guys,
I have a daily OC of 4.4ghz@1.35V (which i know alot of you will say is high) 100% stable never misses a trick. Under full load i do get a touch of voltage drop but still stays stable and the package maintains reasonable temps.
But now I've found myself wanting to find the true limitations of my current setup. I turned up the multiplier a touch to 46 changing the Vcore slightly to 1.38V. Booted fine. Went to start Prime....Crash.
So went back into the bios and boosted a few things to hopefully gain stability. Which it did. But i noticed something which has me a little concerned as seen in the first pic i bumped a few things ups.
But as you'll see the Vcore exceeds the setting that i have set.
This is what we are seeing under load initially (after 2min).
Underload after 6min when i decided to stop the test due to the obvious.
Obviously my initial concern is the fact that the Vcore decides to well exceed what i have set manually.
Is anyone able to explain why this could be happening? or point me in the direction of where i can find out? (if you require more info let me know)
I realize it may just be the Silicon lottery but.....
Is there any other possible reason as to why its requiring such a huge voltage jump to get such a small increase? And is there a setting i can tweak to bring my Vcore back down yet keep stability?
any help would be appreciated, extremely curious to see what the max stable is without killing my CPU..... I dont intend on using above 4.4ghz at all its just a one off
