Why.

I have got the Msi 990fxa-GD65 and 8320 and a Corsair H100 and can pull 4.4ghz, though im currently questioning the cooling capabilities of my H100.

You should be able to get to 4.7ghz with that and a h100i to about 4.9ghz.

But then again it depends on the chip as some are hotter than others.

What is its degree C per watt specification number?

Be extremely suspicious if it does not provide that always required spec number.

Glad you are getting somewhere with the clock.

This was mine until a week or so ago, with the new maps on Battlefield 4 it was starting to have a few wobbles. Dialed it back and running 4.9 again:

Is that with the Corsair H100

You're on thermal limits there.

Did you put your cpu back to stock or @4.2ghz.

And if i remember it was a h100i or the h110, they was using.

humax · 22 Nov 2015 at 20:58

Yes I'm running at stock at the moment

Ok do you want to carry on from 4.2 what we had and try 4.4.

humax · 22 Nov 2015 at 21:03

Put it to how you had the 4.2 overclock, but up the multi to 22, while leaving voltage alone.

humax · 22 Nov 2015 at 21:17

Ok back @4.2Ghz with the volts at Auto
