I just OC'ed my 920 to 3.4GHz following a guide from bit-tech.net.
My temps were:
Stock: Idle - 39c Load - 62c
3.4GHz: Idle - 44c Load 75c
Temps seem high on load. I was hoping for high 60s/ low 70s.
Is this safe?
As per the guide, I set vcore to 1.35. I'd like to set this lower, but I'm not sure if there's anything else I have to adjust as well to compensate?
I'd also like to run an overnight stress test with prime95. How do I do this?
(sorry for all the questions - this is my first OC)
Edit:
I'm checking CPU-Z now and it's showing memory timing as CL 9-9-9-24, however, if I remember correctly, it was showing is CL7-7-7-20? Is there any chance that this might have altered?
And to clarify on the CPU voltage question. I currently have it set to 1.35V, and the QPI/DRAM to 1.35V. If I want to lower to say, 1.20V - 1.30V, do both CPU Voltage and QPI/DRAM (uncore) need to be identical?
I'm wanting to drop the volts to see if I can lower the temps a bit.
