4 pin on motherboard

[peugot]

hello, i try to overclock my 5820K but it sadly doesent seem stable over 4.3ghz. my motherboard have 24pin, 8pin and a 4pin but i have not connected the 4pin because i cant find the cable. would this maybe be why or no ?

Highly doubtful... not sure why a board like that would even have the extra 4 pin honestly...

What vCore are you at?

What vCore are you at?

it is on auto, running 4.3 @ 1.175v. i tried to do it manuallt with 4.4 as high as 1.300 vcore bot still crash :s

 

[peugot]

it is not a good board? :/

 

[ATMINSIDE]

You need to get up around 1.35V for 4.3 most likely.
Are your temps in check?

 

[peugot]

temps are not outstanding but easy manageable for ibt, around 75 max. 4.3 @ 1.175 works perfect, thats why i get pain in my head when 4.4 not working even with 1.3v

Sounds like you're out of cooling to me... what are you using for load testing?

 

[EarthDog]

If you are hitting 75C at 1.17v, you will be A LOT higher at 1.3V....

If you are hitting 75C at 1.17v, you will be A LOT higher at 1.3V....

Almost wonder if it's high ambient temps and/or a bad mount?
