So I want to go higher than a 24/7 overclock at 4GHZ... I dont think its such a good idea... I am already at 1.52 Vcore and at 178 Watts on my CPU under full load, my mobo says 140 Watt CPU ready...
I think its not safe to try to go over a 4GHZ 24/7 OC. I can get to 4.1 GHZ without changing the Vcore above 1.52, but Its not stable once I start doing hard work.
Temps are not a problem, I am at 58C max(62C on stock cooler at stock clocks). Thats with the CPU fan at 75%. I could add my Sythe Kaze 110CFM fan to my CPU-Cooler master hyper 212 EVO-
Anyway I dont think its safe to overclock anymore. I think I am right, but Sometimes I am too scared so to speak, like before when I was new to comps I stuck to a 3.7GHZ OC with my cooler master.
(AMD Cool n' Quite enabled so I am not always at 4GHZ, but I game a lot so it is at 4GHZ more than half the time)
