I've been fiddling around with overclocking for a couple weeks now, and I decided to run through the tutorial on this site again. I successfully overclocked to close to 4.0GHz (190x21).
My vCore voltage for 190x21 is 1.425, and the VTT is 1.3625. Looking at others' systems with similar overclocks, they are all running much lower voltages. One example I came across on the net shows someone running vCore 1.375 and VTT 1.2375. I understand that every chip is different, but something seems very wrong here.
As far as temps, my 190x21 is running upper 70s, sometimes getting up to 82. When I tried 4.2 (200x21), I put my vCore up to 1.5125 and it still is not running stable! The temps got up to 93 before I cut it off.
Please help!
