Hello guys,
I'm new on this forum and new to overclocking. Recently I bought an i5 6600k and I want to overclock it. I have no experience in overclocking a CPU so i need your help.
I tried to overclock the CPU by modifying the multiplier (the voltages were on auto) and I managed to get 4.5GHz but voltages went to 1.35 so I stopped (The temps in AIDA64 Stress test were below 60 *C). I'm afraid that i would do something bad so I want your advice.
Then I tried to modify the BCLK as mentioned in this review but my PC keept restarting and i had to clear CMOS. So I lowered the BCLK and multiplier but the same thing happened.
I want your advice, what should I do? and what i did wrong?
This is my PC:
CPU: Intel Core i5 6600K
CPU COOLER: Phanteks PH-TC14PE
MOBO: GIGABYTE GA-Z170X-Gaming 7
RAM: HyperX Fury Black 8GB DDR4 2133MHz CL14
PSU: Seasonic M12II-850 EVO Edition Bronze 850W
And here are some screenshots of default setting in Bios:
