X79 Overclocking Guide

for me im happy between 80-85c at most and that's in stress programs

realworld usage you wont see above 70's,maybe in video editing ect but not in gaming

Oh and here I was getting worried at 60 degrees in IntelBurnTest

Ok maybe ill push a little higher :)
 
yh you can go higher imo,mid 80c is acceptable in stressing

cpu v I wouldn't like to run close to 1.4v or above on air,around the 1.38v would be my limit but upto you

Im on water, but using the pump and fans at the absolute lowest speeds possible. Im sure turning them up I could bring the temps down a decent whack, but aiming for silence mainly.
 
yeah it comes down to personal choice really,but for me 1.4v would be my vcore limit on cpu,

preferably below that

same for cooling/quitness
 
Managed to nudge it upto 4.6 with only an extra 0.005 vcore so 1.325, running it on a 3dmark loop now to see how it does.
 
There comes a point when that extra 100Mhz requires above average voltage increase. Thats the best point to stop for 24/7 use.

For example - I run [email protected] 1.26v for 24/7 as pushing to 4.6 requires jumping up to 1.32v which is an above average increase in volts - not worth it just for 100mhz.
