Greetings all!
I would like to start out by saying thanks and +1 to Obsidius (op of thread I got info from) and trents and jagged steel (great information from you guys)
After reading that thread, I was able to succesfully oc my 4170 to 4.6 stable on air @1.43 on vcore. (2 hour P95 stable)
Temps were good I believe, 35c on cpu, 36c on MB, and core temps maxed out at 50c but stayed around 48-49c for the most part.
My voltage in BIOS is set to 1.425650 and HWmonitor showed it running @1.41 w/ max of 1.43, CPUz showed 1.43.
My NB frequency I left at 2200mhz and upped the HT link to 2600.
I tried for 4.7, but got errors all the way up to 1.5 on vcore, and temps got close to 60c (58-59c for most part), tried tweaking ram voltage a tic, underclocking the ram and upping fsb some, leaving ram at regular speed and upping fsb a tic. All those while playing with the voltage to see if I could get anything more.
I did have a 4715 (23 x 205) go for about 40 mins before a core stopped, but I cannot remember how the temps looked though. ( I wanna say about 51-52c for core, but not 100%)
CPU and Mb temps never climbed higher than the above, is that normal? (I thought they would've gotten a little higher) and not sure what TMPIN1 is in HWmonitor it went up from 44 to 67c. ( not sure if there is something actually there for the sensor to read)
Is there anything else I can try or do I need to look at maybe going liquid cooling for lower temps before trying again?
