Ridiculous 6700k overclocking results.Would like some explanations...
Hi, so i installed ASUS AI-suite3 because i like the control it gives you. The utility also overclocks your CPU (in a "safe range" for all pc's..
(running the i7 6700K on an asus Z170 Pro gaming mobo)
I got "impressive" results. 4.8Ghz at 1.356V, drawing "87watts" with a max temp of "61 degrees c"..
Curious to say the least.... The program mentions that syntetic benchmarks like Aida 64 etc will produce way higher temps, but ai-suite overclocks the cpu to real life scenarios like gaming etc... So thats why it has low temps and high frequencies, but im not convinced...
I am running an air cooler for heavens sake! A noctua NH-u14s!
My cpu (at stock), hit max ~60c on syntetic benchmarks with almost no chassi fan airflow (like my pc silent). This looked way too good to be true... Can my temp probe be faulty or something?
