Just put together my new rig a few days ago:
- CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor
- CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 1366/1156/1155/775/FM1/AM3/AM3+/AM2/AM2+
- Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z87-DS3H ATX
- Memory: Kingston 16GB (2x8GB) HyperX Fury, DDR3 1866MHz, CL10, 1.5V
- Storage: Kingston SSDNow V300 240 GB SSD 2.5"
- Video Card: Asus GTX760-DC2OC-2GD5 NVIDIA GeForce GTX760 2048 MB DirectCU II OC
- Case: Fractal Design Define R4 Black Pearl - ATX
- Power Supply: Corsair CS750M, 80 PLUS Gold, 750 W
I tried my hand at overclocking for the first time. Reading around, people are reporting as high as 4.6GHz with voltages below 1.3V but I can't get mine to stabilize at 4.2 even at 1.27V. Should I just keep cranking up the voltage 'til Prime95 no longer BSoDs? Temps average at around 70°C during its torture test so more voltage wouldn't kill the chip, right?
