Overclocking my I7 4770k on MSI z87gd65

SamyBoy13 · 11 Jul 2014 at 14:19

Hi there I wonder how good my cpu is here it is a image of OCCT Linpack running for 40 minutes. Currently I own H100I with 120 sp fans.

Also my question is when I over clock my cpu do I only need to raise CPU voltage and ratio or maybe I need to more?

Also my ambient temperature is 22 Celsius

Nice low stock voltage and temps. If it does 4.5GHz @ 1.2V with low temps it is a good chip.

May I ask you is it necessary to over clock cpu cache if I overclock my cpu?

SamyBoy13 · 11 Jul 2014 at 14:41

If so do you know what option would it be on MSI Z87GD65?

Leave it at default, it does not make much difference except in benchmarks. Overclock the cache once the CPU clock is stable.

Do you guys have any recommendation where to start ( voltage ? clock speed?) and what is max safe voltage for 24/7

45x multiplier 1.25V see if it boots.

Max safe around 1.3V
