Just bought this to go with my ssds and evga 980 sc, and i cant keep the 6700k overclocked, cpuz shows the oc but as soon as any load is applied the multiplier goes to x39.9?
Could I need a better psu than the corsair vs550? Or am I missing something?
Also on real temp and hwmonitor my temps for the 6700k are moving between 14-33 every second on all cores and can't get a stable reading? I reseated the cooler and re did the Icdiamond paste. HWmonitor and realtemp also both show different temps on all cores with a 2-5 degree varience between the programs
After running heaven and 3dmark and comparing my results with other 6700 and 980 users it appears them results are fine. Cinebench r15 score 870cb, i want to push it a little more with even a small overlcock
When stressing the cpu does it clock itself down to 39.9 multi and i cant seem to keep even a 4.4ghz all core overclock on, as soon as prime95 or aida64 run the 4.4ghz goes to 3.99ghz ....
I then set x44 and enabled turbo and all 4 cores to 44.... downclocks to 3997 in prime still and aida64 the clocks go from 39.9 to 45 and move inbetween. Average in aida is 4250.
really confusing myself here
