So I am currently at overclocking my i5-6600K on an Asus Z170-A.
Coming from X79 and berfore that Z77, I still dont quite fully understand the Z170 bios and all of its components. So I need your help...
1. Is there a way to prevent the cpu from going back to stock clock at the desktop? I have intel speed step and c-states disabled, and turbo enabled. Is there another setting I need to configure?
2. I am currently stuck at 4.7GHz @ 1.4V. It passed 5 minutes of AIDA64 stress test and stayed under 65C. (H100i GTX) What Voltage settings apart from the cpu core/cache voltage are worth rising to improve system stability? I played around a bit with pch, vccio and system agent voltage, seemingly without any big affect, didnt go over 1.2V on any of them though. What exactly are all these voltage settings and which should I adjust?
