Check my voltages please.

[Duke{CLR}]

I'm in a bit of a rush today but I just had to do a bit of an OC. I loaded a bunch of setting form a thread at EVGA, the OC works for me but the voltages in it are for 4.2, I'm not interested in that and my temps are running a bit high. Do any of theses voltages seem a bit high? Also which ones should I try to drop if none stand out.


This thing get a lot hotter then it used to so i think I need to re paste.

Your Vcore is way too high for that clock.

Thanks, I just dropped it to 1.25 and that made a huge difference in temps.

I'm not surprised it dropped a lot. 1.4V is usually for clocks of 4.5Ghz+ under great watercooling lol.

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the other voltages could be adjusted down too.

What are you using to test the overlock?

[Duke{CLR}]

Prime 95 for the test

Try IBT. Much better for newer chips and gets them running hotter.

Ill check that out.

Holy Jesus, that vcore is .. Hu-hu-hu-HIIIIIIGHHH !!! 1.406 ??? Hot damn, no wonder your temps were up !! Hahaaa ....

I keep forgetting to check on what my 2500k is at - its bone stock running at 4.1 - I think I'm at 1.25v.

Juneau, by IBT, do you mean the International Brotherhood of Teamsters ?? That's where google takes me for a search on that.

So I guess OCCT is now left to the overclocking dustbin of PC software ??

LOL, my bad. Expected it to be a top result in a Google.

It's Intel Burn Test.

Another good one is Aida64. It does come with a few warnings though due to how Haswell, and possibly some of chips deal with voltage regulation when certain instructions are being processed.
