Hi,
Decided to try my hand with offset mode on my ASUS P8Z77-v deluxe and my 3770k.
I initially did a test on 4.6ghz at 1.24v on manual mode which was stable for 12 hour on prime. Then tried again with IBT and passed 100 runs on maximum.
So then I've been trying to achieve the same kind of thing but using offset mode and LLC. I set things so it would achieve the 1.24v - Ultra High LLC and +0.015 I think. Again everything was fine during prime and IBT. Now I've been reading forums saying OCCT is the best stress test for RAM and CPU, so downloaded that. Using the same settings, despite it being 1.24v max on prime and IBT, OCCT has now got the voltage up to 1.265v which the processor shouldnt really have any problems passing.
Is this right? Should I bother taking the offset down a bit?
I chose offset mode to try and decrease voltage while idle - as with my rig like 95% of he time it is. But obviously dont want it being higher than it needs to be at load.
Thanks!
