Overclocking X79 & 3930K Help!

I am keeping LLC as low as possible - only using medium, with a slight negative offset core voltage of -0.05V

If I ran 1.28V core with Regular LLC using small positive offset, I would get BSOD in Rosetta@Home

Am now running 1.28V with medium LLC, using the small negative offset mentioned above, and no issues so far, apart from slightly increased temps.

Pll currently 1.825V
VCCSA 1.225V
VTT1 1.156V
RAM 1.45V
 
up to 4.8 at 1.44 volts, have you guys been checking your vcore with a multimeter or just reading it from software?
 
Just reading it from Asus Suite II, supposed to be fairly accurate on the Sabertooth and Gene IV. Either way, I are not for the readout, just what's stable and cool and staying under 1.35 in BIOS I'm pretty safe.

Similar probs,can't get stable past 4.4.What do you call "increased temps". thanks in advance
 
Running a stable 4.7 @ 1.410 Vcore using an extension with 5 other devices connected to it, so may try plugging it straight into the wall if that genuinely makes a difference it'd be nice to lower my vcore to under 1.4 or keep it there but with a 4.8 overclock again.

Hi there,
sorry for jumping in but what temps you getting?
 
Hi there,

I've now got it at 4.8ghz with the same vcore idle temps are 32-38 degrees (gets hotter during night as I leave door shut + heating gets turned on)

during something like an after effects render that lasts an hour or so + using other apps at the same time 55-60 degrees

Prime 95 temps are always close to the limit my max temps usually hit 88-89 on it which puts me a couple of degrees from tjmax (always 1 core that's hotter than the rest, the other cores all stay below 80 degrees. However I never stress my system that much in normal use even with a render being done + using other applications at the same time temps stay about where I want them.

have a similar set up to you, also using that guide(best one so far).Just set mine up for a overnite prime @4.6 1.392v,will post result tomorrow if interested?

At similar voltage, just using LLC of medium rather than regular, temps went up roughly 4/5C

Seemingly still running strong at 1.28V here. Though it seems to be staying mostly at 1.288V so I guess I should say 1.29V
 
Yeah, efficient cooler does seem to help with OC from what I seen in some reviews

And I think getting a good application of thermal paste is very important too.
 
at 4.8ghz after an hour in prime95 each core is average 75degrees, peak was 79, thats using a xspc rasa block and rx360 rad.

Thanks, will try that later and post back. Just seems every time I try to get past 4.4 it becomes unstable.But that might be my ceiling, hope not
 
I think upping my VCCSA helped a fair bit on my OC. Would get random hangs like when shutting down, but not under load....

Still got a ways to go with finishing up where I leave my OC, especially as getting better cooler.

Don't mind a peak of 80C, but that is the highest will go. Yes, I could lower clocks and voltages, but I didn't get such an expensive processor to run below 4.5GHz!

How much did you up the VCCSA to?
Also do you keep the VTT CPU voltage similar to the VCCSA as the guide I'm using recommends it? Every time I go over 4.4 my temps rocket to high 80's, I know my set up wont get that hot, just not that keen them going that high under testing.
Like you I want a decent OC but still struggling. Once more into BSOD land!
