***Intel i7 4790K Owners thread***

[cwgk91]

Indeed. At least mine does 4.6Ghz - enough for now

 

[ViRuS2k]

so wait OCUK are selling 2 different devils ?????

L3 and L4 2013-2014

are the new batch of CPUS from ocuk that are shipping today for instance L4 ????????
cause i just ordered one ??? do i need to phone them ? lol

-----------------------

Ok paranoia kicked in and i called OCUK....
basically the first batch they got in was 2013 -L3 stock all those according to them have been sold or sold via preorders and the latest batch they have in stock now are the newer L4 2014 models.

Got mine set @ 4.6Ghz for 24/7 use now. Bumped that auto voltage adjust thing to +0.50v. Gives 1.26v and drops to 0.8v when downclocked. Tested with Intel Burn test and the other usual tests. Rock solid.

Very happy with this CPU

 

[AshD93]

Just got mine. L4

 

[Krowzer]

Just got mine. L4

Was it from OCUK?

Finally at home.......

My 4790K with latest LinX topped on 78C (ambient 33C)..... at stock voltage.

CPU Vcore is 1.200V and CPU VID is 1.183V.

Let's start to set manually........

 

[AshD93]

Was it from OCUK?

Nope, from a eTailer.

Is the batch the same bit that's printed on the chip?

Got mine set up yesterday (on a Z97 ASUS board) but coming from Ivy the BIOS for Haswell seems to have more voltage settings than you can shake a stick at and I'd appreciate the trailblazers pointing me in the right direction for which voltage settings worked for them to get a similar result to that above. I'm looking for a stable 24/7 overclock with low as possible volts once I've seen how far I can push this silicon.

Mine is from the second batch of OcUK stock (L418C133) and has passed Cinebench, Realbench, wPrime etc at 47 x 100, albeit at stock volts of up to 1.35 (in CPU-ID). It passed all but Realbench at 48 x 100 (BSOD 101 during the last multitasking phase) but autovolts was up at 1.375 by that point, which even with custom watercooling was a tad high (temps on core 3 touched 79C briefly iirc).

 

[Boomstick777]

My batch number is L336D106. Does 4.9Ghz.

Do the L4's do as well?

Yes mate

 

[Robbo]

Reinforcements have arrived.

 

[wazza300]

hehe

hope it goes well,looks huuuge

I got a 4790K (L331C518) along with Asus Z97 Deluxe and Kingston Hyperx 2400 16GB from OcUk today. It is in a Fractal R4 case with a Noctua U14S.

At stock RealTemp 3.70 is showing idle 27/25/25/24 cpu-z core voltage 0.719V.

Running Cinebench R15 RealTemp shows 60/58/57/54 and cpu-z core voltage is only 1.105V.

Have I got a good chip?

 

[Robbo]

I hadn't checked until now, but mine is an L4 chip too. So that's good I guess.

 

[Voltage]

mine is running a bit toasty even on water, maxing out at 77oC!

won't know til you try to overclock it buddy.

 

[Robbo]

So, with everything on Auto (so 1.176v and 4.4Ghz under load), I get 24c idle and 51c under Cinebench R15 load.

Epic! Was 90~ before.

Noctua.

 

[mattup]

I have the same batch as you L331C518.

It does 4.6 @ 1.238V. 4.7 @ 1.27v

Runs under 60c during gaming and 70c in prime.

I would keep it if I were you.

well being lied to on the phone, if you think thats not justified as a customer to be a little pee`d off then i dont know what to say to you lol.
