So let me introduce myself. MY name is joe but I go by lochekey mostly. I have been benching for about a month now and decided that I enjoy it enough that I intend to make it a normal activity. As such I decided to join the overclockers.com team for some camaraderie. I am mainly looking for a sanity check on what I can expect form my hardware. I am currently trying to improve my XTU score past my personal best of 1101 with an I5-4690K. I am able to stabilize my cpu at 4.9ghz with 1.49 volts but could not get it to complete a benchmark run at 5.0ghz even with 1.575 volts. I am using 16gb(4 sticks) of mushkin blackline 2133 10-11-10-28 ddr3 to back up my cpu. I have pushed the ram to 2400 9-12-11-33. I am unable to get the ram stable at anything past 2425 even with 1.8volts and loosening timings. I have posted a screenshot below of my bios settings as well as my ram timings. I am hoping someone can tell me if I am just expecting to much hoping to push this hardware further, or maybe you can spot something glaringly obvious in my set up that is hindering me. Either way some feed back in the form of a sanity check would be appreciated.
Thanks
