4670k overclocking on a Z87X-OC

[Dave1240]

Hi, I have this setup and i was trying to achive 4.5/4.6ghz but i dont think this is going to happen with my low knowledge.

Gigabyte Z87X-OC Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard
Intel Core i5-4670K 3.40GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail
XFX 1050W Black Edition Pro '80+ Gold' Certified Modular Power Supply
G-Skill 8GB Ripjaws X DDR3 1333 Dual Kit

This is what i have done

Cpu Vrin loadline calibration = Extreme
Cpu Enhanced halt (C1E) = Disabled
C3 state support = Disabled
C6/C7 state support = Disabled

4.3ghz @ 1.254v stable for 25min AIDA64 and stable on games.

Core
0 62c
1 61c
2 60c
3 61c

4.4ghz @ 1.29v Still testing AIDA64 now @ 10min

core
0 64c
1 62c
2 62c
3 64c

What do think?, 4.5/4.6 does not look good.

Whats your cooling??? 4.5 may be possible but defo not 4.6 in my eyes.

I have a noctua nh d14, I ended up stable at 1.293v on 4.4ghz.

I suspected that as your voltage does not have enough headroom to give you 4.5 on Air. Water you would be 4.5 for sure.

Yeah that is what I was thinking, I will stick to 4.3ghz.
