Hello all, I am new here and was hoping the experts could shed some light on what I am experiencing with my overclock.
I was able to OC my cpu to 4.4ghz at 1.265 and have it stress test stable but it would crash in games after so long. What I have noticed is that even though I set the multiplier to 44, I will see in HWMonitor that the clock speeds spike up to around 4.5ghz. It does this regardless of the multiplier that I set, for instance I went back into the BIOS and bumped the multiplier to 45 and upped the voltage slightly and it would start out great in the benchmarks (prime95 26.6, OCCT) and then after maybe 3-5 minutes I would see that the core clocks spiked up past what is set in the BIOS. I cant for the life of me figure out why it is doing this. I have turned off the C-states and speedstep.
I have a pretty good feeling this is why my OC wont stay stable while playing games.
I have searched and searched for an answer on this but I have only found two other instances of people complaining about this issues and neither were resolved. Any help is appreciated and please let me know if I can provide more information.
Thank you in advance!
