I must have a bum chip, I need way more vcore for 4500

Nice, but it's kinda normal for these chips. Like the voltage though.

Thanks. I had her running 4Ghz at 1.15V as well. This voltage was simple a random choice, I may be able to get better. But I'll OC higher before I drop voltage.
You have a 2600K don't you? I thought the 2600K required more V to OC anyway? |

it really is the luck of the draw mate. My 2600k doesn't need as much V for the same clock as my 2500k. No idea why apart from having a dud 2500k.

My 2600K needs 1.35-36 to be stable at 4.6. Not bothered really as it's on water and I really haven't spent any time seeing how low I can get it.

![]() ![]() If my mobo was a little better and I had more options for LLC I bet I could get 4.5Ghz @ 1.225V. The voltage drops to it anyway.

Go for a little higher - your Hyper 212+ can handle a little more heat.
Punch in 1.35v an see if you stop at 4.7 or 4.8ghz. Don't think your cooler could handle the heat from any higher volts though.

![]() I'm gonna bring her up a little further.. I already did some testing at higher speeds but nothing in depth.. The thing is that without more aggressive LLC at 1.4V in BIOS she drops quite a bit and it's far from 1.4V then.. ![]() The higher the V the higher the Vdroop

Dunno but if you have the option for cpu voltage offset in your bios then that is the way to go - it will idle at stock vcore and jump up the voltage by your "offset" voltage under load to a maximum set amount.

![]() and if i set my cpu to auto / offset mode the board will give it around 1.300V which i think is too much, when i do 4ghz at 1.135V stable.

Damn you guys have some great chips. I need 1.36v for 4.5GHz. Voltage auto, OC'd using Turbo Ratios.

There's your problem, why have you left voltage on auto? try normal with an offset of 0.05-0.1v that should give you around 1.05-1.15v idle and around 1.25-1.3v on load

Really? I think this is the first time I hear of that. How much voltage have you tried to give it when overclocking?

My 2500k is 24h prime stable at 4.6GHz @ 1.325v.
But in BF3 I need 1.335v to be stable at 4.4GHz. |

Weird how that works. You would figure Prime 95 would stress it more, which it does.
