Hi guys,

Just installed a 4690K on my Asus Z87-pro motherboard.

Overclock testing (1 hour aida & realbench 1 hour) resulted in:
3,9 (stock): 1.056
4.5 ghz all cores: 1.3v
4,6 ghz all cores: 1.37v

I can't do any better on the voltage part (cache voltage 1.280 & input 1.7. Lowering or upping doesn't make a difference). Lowering my vid just 0.02 makes bsod under stressing. The strangest thing is that my vccin (CPU input voltage it's called on my mobo) can't change it's values.

My temps are really good under the 1.37v load: 65C on highest core on AIDA. Have some proper aircooling (NH-D14 with 2000rpm 3x and tornado amount of airflow) I realise i'm nearing the max voltage on haswell here.

I upgraded from a 4770K due to a delid fail. Was going great on the razor method untill i scratched the heatsink. It died....

Just today I got my 4690K and to be honest, it was kinda a disappointment seeing 1.37v needed for 4,6ghz. My 4770K on the other hand did 4,35ghz on 1,35v. I had no problems changing my vccin with the 4770K.

Flash BIOS to older version also didn't help.

Your ideas are greatly appreciated!
