Hey guys

I was able to get my 3930K up to 4.7 with 1.3325v on air. (72c prime95 for 12 hours - 24c max ambient)

I previously had a Corsair H100 (4 fans push-pull) but temps on this air cooler (Thermaltake Frio Extreme) seem to be 5-7c better. I have tested multiple times with new and different thermal paste and this is the lowest I can get.

Anyway what voltages are you running 24/7, temps and clock speeds for your i7 3930K?

Recommended for Air cooling max 1.35v / Watercooling max 1.40v for running 24/7 some have run higher volts with no trouble.

Nice overclock.

Thanks, yeah I heard running anything over 1.4v will degrade your chip slightly faster.

I'm looking to bench a little but I don't want to risk pumping anything over 1.35v into the chip just for precautions sake.

Nice nickname btw :D
