Hello there!
So I built my first pc a few months ago and have finally decided to try and get into overclocking.
I've run into a few issues though that I'd like some help on. I've been trying to OC my 6600k to 4.4ghz, but the results seem a little unusual. I've gotten it stable at 1.385 vcore and stress tests passed (used x264 stability test from this guide http://www.overclock.net/t/1570313/skylake-overclocking-guide-with-statistics). I have not had any crashes or BSODs at these settings and temps are below 80c but I feel like I should be getting a lot higher OCs at lower vcore according to most i5 6600ks I've seen.
My setup is:
i5 6600k
212 evo
rm850w psu
msi z170a krait gaming
My BIOS settings are:
CPU ratio: 44
BCLK: 100.00
XMP: disabled
CPU core voltage: 1.385
I'd greatly appreciate any feedback or help. Thank you.
