I would first like to thank OC.net for all its help in guiding me along my path of overclocking and awesomness. Secondly, I would like to ask if I should continue down the path of awesomenes.. This screenshot was taken with stock voltages at idle temps. I don't know why but Speedfan shows a different CPU frequency than CPUZ. I would like as much input as possible.

Trust CPUz. Speedfan for me personally has always had bugs.

CPUz, AIDA64 or AoD generally get it right.

I agree 100%, speedfan has always givin me problems also.

are you using watercooling? what are your temps on p95?

 

[damric]

That's on a Hyper 212+ air cooler with two sickleflows, and it depends on how cold I have the AC in my house, but typically ~65'C. That is not my everyday clocks, and I usually only bench at 5000MHz.

.. Such a hot chip.

so I should cross the stock voltage barrier and reach for 5.0??? I hear people stopping at 4.4, what do you think?

Whatever you're capable of cooling.
