Nice...don't get use to that spot.

Update: I'm getting 4.7ghz stable now on 1.280volts 1021 marks, my temperatures are very low, ie NEVER going past 76c during the most intense load I can throw it's way, and speed confirmed by CPUID, I think I've really lucked out and gotten one of those golden 10%'s that overclock really well, I'm using a Seidon coolermaster 120m, is this a good setup? I'm only asking here because we all must have similar setups I'm guessing..

1021 with 4.7Ghz i think its low no? Wath is your memory speed? (For your last question). But with 1.280, it's awesome you are lucky =D. With mine i can't have more of 4.8Ghz, 4.9Ghz @ 1.500v can't load windows, i'm not lucky =/ ^^.

[nicky905]

yes, I think 1021 is low as well, my mem is 1600mhz with a latency of 10, im actually getting 1014 at 4.7ghz on only 2.5volts now im using a Gigabyte B85M-HD3 mobo so my clock is locked but most else is now unlocked with new BIOS.. on 4.7ghz its 100% stable, it will boot at 4.8ghz on 1.29v, but blue screens halfway through the XTU benchmark, my video card is a 4gb GeForce gt630 and is overclocked to its limits (core 900mhz, shaders 1800mhz mem 700mhz).. any suggestions? im new/old to this, back when I first did this it was limited to jumpers on the motherboard but having owned laptops only for the last 10yrs ive not realistically been able to do much at all

[nicky905]

maybe someone can point me to the correct thread if its not appropriate here, if not.. when I try and analyse my computer on XTU online to properly compete it says it doesn't know what an i7 4770k is?? any ideas? thanks everyone! )

If you want more points you need fast memory (2000+ mhz), my memory 2133 in 9-11-10-27, for the challenge i have got a bit OC the memory to 2290mhz with same timing.

 

I don't know for the problem with XTU online.
