5820k here, installed this morning and currently on 4.4 @ 1.117 volts. I think I am onto a winner here.

What validation are we using here to get on the owners list and valid OC's.

Looks like you have a very good chip there. Let's see if it passes a good long stress test. Congrats though and welcome to the club.

I did a little 20 min test, it has passed all over tests I have done including real beach h. And IBT etc. I will do the 8 hour test soon but I feel an 8 hour test is pointless.

4.4 @ 1.117 Volts. + offset 125mv. (Not fixed volts)
Noctua D14 Air Cooler
Temps average 42c

Temps are nice and low, I am in the 30s to 40s when gaming and recording with DXTory. Insane for an air cooler. Very impressed with this CPU.

So,

My 5820k is fully stable on 4.4 @ 1.117 volts and 4.5 @ 1.157 volts and gaming for 3-4 hours results in temps from 39-48c which is great.

My issue is when I try to OC to 4.6, no matter how many volts up to 1.3 I can not get it stable. Its as if my CPU hates 4.6.

Any ideas?

EDIT: 40 runs of realbench H.264 encoding at 4.5 @ 1.157 volts. That will do me I think.

I would stick at that tbh, the extra 100 is not worth it.

Funny because this chip runs 4.8 at around 1.3 volts yet it struggles on 4.6. Odd.

I dont think the jump in volts is worth it, 4.4 - 4.5 on 6/12 CPU is beastly and is more than enough, and at nearly at stock volts resulting is super low temps so I cant complain.

New owner here! My 4690k for my new build arrived this morning, only ordered it yesterday!

It has 'made in Vietnam' on it and I thought it was fake xD Google came up with nothing but a member on this forum said they have it on good authority that from 2015 at least 70% of intel CPUs will be made in Vietnam as they have a factory there.

So that put my mind at rest. /inteln00b

Wrong section. ;)
 
Got my 5820K. Quick test and currently at 4.6GHz 1.25V with IBT temps in the low 70s. 5 passes on 'very high' 4096MB settings so far. Looks like I've got a gem.

Much much better than my 4790K @ 4.8GHz which reached 95C on IBT.

Solder vs TIM any day.
 
Upgraded to a 5930k from x58 x5650@ 4Ghz, which is going to the other half.

Read all this thread last night, trying to get my head round overclocking on x99.
So do a lot of people just clock the core on the multi, input core voltage and get it stable and leave it at that?
So far testing 4.5 @1.2 volts, looking like I might have a decent chip :)

[email protected] if stable you have a gem of a cpu I would say - have you tested for stability at that clock?
 
Been doing a spot of gaming on my recently built 5820k setup. All at stock for the time being. Currently idling at 32c on the highest core, during gaming a max of 52c. How does this seem for one of theese? Cooler is a dual tower k2 with x2 2350rpm PWM corsair sp fans.

Which board and ram have you opted for? And hope the build goes well.:)

I went for the Asus x99-pro board and Crucial ballistix sport 16gb kit. I am thinking I should have gone for a quicker speed instead of 2400mhz but either way, will be an epic upgrade over what I currently have.

I will also just be on air cooling for a week or so until I buy my aio cooler but its alright as I have a phanteks TC14PE to put on which has been good to me so far.
