Help overclocking a 3770K

[vistas]

Thank you Theocnoob for your guide to overclock i7 3770k/AsRock z77. I finally was able to increase the frequency of my CPU. But I have a doubt about the test with Prime95: in fact after bringing the CPU to 4.5Ghz I performed the tests 'Blend' but after 17 minutes the temperature of a core had gone to 90 °.
While using Intel Burn Test, as you recommended, I had no problem in finishing the test with a maximum temperature of 83 °.
The configuration of my computer is the following:
PSU ENERMAX 80+ 625W
M/B ASRock Z77 Extreme6/TB4
Ram 8xDDR3 GSkill F3-2400C11-4GAB
CPU Intel I7-3770K 3.50Ghz with NOCTUA NH-U12P SE2
GPU Gigabyte GeForce GTX 560Ti 1024 MB
SSD Corsair Force 3 240Gb
HD WDC WD10EARS 1000Gb
HD SAMSUNG HD154UI 1500Gb
Mast. LG DVD-RAM GH22LS30 LS
Monitor LG W2363 [23" LCD]
Case Cooler Master Cooler Master 690 II Advanced - PURE Black Edition

You didn't list what voltage you used in your post to achieve 4.5ghz with the 3770k, please list that.

vistas, you'll be better off making a new thread and saying "I tried these steps, but I need more help" and listing your hardware.

Created new thread for better help (as i feel this wont be resolved in a couple posts).

What CPU cooler is being used?

I've listed my hardware in the previous post. I also followed step by step guide of Theocnob

I enter the following screens from my own BIOS

I don't see, but may have missed, the cooler on your cpu... what is it?

 

[ATMINSIDE]

Use manual CPU voltage and set 4.5GHz at 1.3V.
Run Prime95 and show us a screenshot of HWMonitor after 20minutes of P95.

I had to stop the test because of temperatures higher than 90 °
I set the CPU to 4.5Ghz 1.3V

 

[ATMINSIDE]

Re mount the CPU cooler and try again.
Take a picture of how your current TIM application looks when you remove the cooler.

My 3770K was a silicon lottery jackpot, OC'd to 4.5GHz with a bump of +0.025v, went to 4.3GHz with stock voltage (1.08v?). Wish every 3770K was like that.

 

[Robert17]

As above, re-seat your cooler, then 1.3V should get you to 4.5Ghz- probably looking at Illuto get 4.8Ghz or so. This was my experience. I topped out my 3770K at 4.9 at 1.44 v IIRC.

Delid the thing and it will run cooler.

There's plenty more troubleshooting before jumping to a delidding.
