Im new to overclocking and just finished running some tests Got the 4770k from 3.5 to 4.6. Hopefully someone can chime in and tell me if everthing looks ok. Top ss is after doing OC bottom is after prime 95 for 5 min running small tff for max heat..
I like the looks of that software, but think all OCing should be done from BIOS settings. Just keep watching your temps and keep the v-core volts as low as possible and still stable.
Everything looks good that I see in those screenshots. You have a very good rig!
Yea I've been watching them. Ran prime95 for 20 min and never got above 74c
That is when under a heavy load from Prime and not bad using an air cooler. I would put a liquid cooler on it
Thanks,
Yea me too :)
Looking at hit build not many corners were cut except in the cpu cooling department.
I personally would select a different cpu cooler if over clocking.
I haven't read anything very bad about the D92 but then I haven't read anything that would suggest it's a good cooler for a over clock.Cooling Coolmaster D92
Here are the results of testing on the d92 Cooler Master Hyper D92 Review » Page 4 - Cooler Master Hyper D92 Testing: Setup & Results - Overclockers Club. From the results on overclocking it doesn't seem to be that bad of a cooler. I'm planning on getting a watercooler eventually does anyone have any suggestions on one I should get with this system?
Well it seem to be a middle of the road cooler at best according to the site you posted.
To me that is not good enough when over clocking to any high degree. Of course that is just my opinion.
