Best I can stable at the moment is 4.4ghz@ 2.24v. HT enabled. Uncore 4100. Ring bus 1.100. Mem @2133, 1.5v.
Would I likely get higher stable OC if I lower memory to 1866?

How do I see what volts the ring bus is using at stock? I have just installed HWmonitor, is it shown in there? If so where?

Try AIDA64, or look in BIOS under monitoring section. Cache voltage scales with load, too, so using OS to measure can give erroneous readings.

I'll have the G1.Sniper5 on my testbench soon, haven't look at the options there yet. Had some hardware die, so cannot test boards ATM.

Are these the numbers I should use? These are the defaults but they are higher than when idle in windows.

Yes, that's what I meant. And yeah, higher in BIOS, that's why you need to look there. Unfortunately, it seems that required information is not listed. :mad:

Yeah, was just checking that they are the right numbers.

petedread. 4770K, L316B291. Stock volts, cpu 1.128,cache 1.764:
OC CPU clock 4.600 (46x100mhz), cpu 1.360v, cash/ring multi 35, cash/ring 1.050v.
Mem OC 2133mhz, 1.500v. Corsair h70.
I stop Aida after 5 minutes because temps are peaking at 100c.
(I think the bios is reading the stock cache/ring volts wrong. One page shows that the volts are set to 1.050v but CPU status page shows 1.764 which is higher than when overclocked)

That 1.764 V will be the CPU VRM input voltage, not the cache voltage. That's why it is so high. 1.8V is way too much for other voltages, and would damage the chip (I know this by experience :banghead: and no, that's not the dead hardware I was referring to a few posts back :D)

It must be, because the cpu vrm is set to 1.800 stock. The cache/ring is 1.050v stock.

what's is the average vcore you guys need for 4600MHz

I see some need very little and other require a very large amount for 4500 ( im guessing some are using auto volts) I have 1.25 set now and cant seem to get it stable a bump or 2 in vcore is not helping any.

I don't think there is a average, it's all over the place. Some are getting 4.6@ 1.220mhz, some 1.3, personally I need 1.390v to be OCCT stable @ 4.5ghz lol. But it is unlikely you will be as unlucky as me.
I've had to abandon the multiplier and set 125x33 for 4.125ghz@ 1.205v, this puts the cache at 4000mhz.
Just keep going up in increments of 5 or 10mhz until you become stable.

Mine needs

1.154v @ 4.4Ghz
1.176v @ 4.5Ghz
~ 1.216v @ 4.6Ghz
~ 1.26v @ 4.7Ghz

I didnt test further, I need push pull on H90 ^^

How is it crashing?


10 dead Haswells so far, boys. I'm ready to write up the OC guide! If it passes W1zz's approval, it'll be on the front page soon, working on it today, gotta capture some screenshots and need to make some phone calls to confirm some info, first, and some reps aren't in office yet, it's still early A.M. hours in Cali.

Wait, you killed 10 haswells for an ambient overclocking guide? The heck!?!!!

Who is footing the bill for all those Haswells?

Intel, TPU's motherboard OEM partners, and myself. :eek:

And let me tell you, I'm not upset about those deaths, one bit. Not one bit; they actually leave me smiling.:wtf:
