Can I stress test my cpu in realbench if I have no discrete graphics card at the moment?
thanks. I thought it might blow up from handbrake with igpuYes.
No, it will be fine. It might not overclock as well since the GPU causes the CPU to run a bit warmer. I've not actually tried that but this is what we were told when Skylake first came out.thanks. I thought it might blow up from handbrake with igpu
Guys quick question,its normal for voltage to go up to 1,35 and even more when runing stock with turbo boost on?Voltage is all over the place,and sometimes goes higher.Should i just keep it manual at 1,28 or leave everything on auto and let it do its thing.I don't want to overclock just to have turbo boost on,but if its runing at 1,35 i might as well be overclocking and geting 4,5 or 4,6ghz.I have XMP setting in bios turned on to enhance cores also.Running corsair 3200 DDR memory.
thanks.
In the picture its only 1,328 but it went up to 1,38 just asking if this is normal on auto everything.

look what just showed up at work! thanks for the review [H], looking forward to seeing how well this overclocks.
Have you tried adaptive. If you use manual core it won't reduce when idle
Nice man! Got mine up and running yesterday. Looks like we had the same idea . If it's not too much trouble, please let me know what BIOS settings you used once you get it overclocked. I've got mine running stable @ 4.6ghz so far but I'm an overclocking noob so I don't know if my values are ideal.
I went with the Gigabyte Z170X Gaming 7, I liked the alpine ridge capabilities and dual m.2 x4. Not so much the Intel+Killer LAN. I'm just using the Intel, but being able to bridge would have been nice. XMP with a 3600C16 kit g.skill skill (on the QVL) went off without a hitch and is bomb stable.
Nice F150.
My 6700k seems to run warm. I have it at 1.36v @ 4600 and it's rock stable there but even with my TT water 3.0 240 with push pull I was hitting 81c with Prime v28 (which is the ultra torcher one with avx2 instruction sets) but no more than 70c with the Intel burn in test and rarely above 60c while gaming. While gaming it bounces around from 45 to 60c quite a bit though.. I guess that's fairly normal? I was thinking about reseating it with some GC extreme I got.
Guys, what are you testing your stability with? I was using realbench before and looked like had a stable OC when I was running without a dedicated graphics card as I was passing several hour stress test without any trouble. I've got a gtx 1080 few days ago and now when I try to run realbench - first the Luxmark kind of freezes and it takes a while for that picture to load while realbench is running. Secondly - I had a driver restored message once during stress test and second time while playing witcher 3. I don't know whether it's GPU or nvidia drivers or it's CPU after all, but as i said - I was stress testing and not crashing or anything in Realbench for hours when it was just RAA and CPU without dedicated card. Can adding a gpu cause instability for cpu OC at all?
Have you rebenched with the OC turned off? It could be something with the PCI-E clock if you used a BCLK OC. But chances are it's driver related because of the driver error message.Guys, what are you testing your stability with?

Hey, what speed ram did you get? How's your build going so far?
The ram is 3400 MHz but I'm running it at 3200 at the moment. I did a very quick overclock to 4.4 GHz (spent only minutes on it) and I haven't had a chance to go back and tweak it yet. I need to see how far I can properly overclock and also get my ram back up to 3400.
My board is ASUS Z170 PRO GAMING. Any recommend settings for adaptive voltage guys?
I've just upgraded to the 1902 bios on my Maximus VIII Formula. CPU is 6700K. GPU is a Gigabyte Xtreme OC 980Ti set to factory OC.
x46 on all cores. Max x46 on cache ratio. Memory timing manually set to specs by manufacturor (Geil 3000-16-16-36).
Adaptive 1.305 offset 0.022. Running RealBench by Asus is stable. Using AIO H115i temp peaks at 86C with an ambient of 28C. Under gaming is rarely exceeds 73C.
Any thoughts wether this is a good OC setting?
I reverted back to the 1701 bios. Windows keeps reporting an unknown device. A motherboard that costed me € 360,- and all they mention in bios updates is improved stability. In my case the UEFI security prevented Windows 7 from booting and only later is read that i can turn that off wheres i didn't have to before. I could be an update from Microsoft causing it but it's all very flaky.Overclock seems about right for your cooling. I'm cruising along at 4.5@1.25v manual with a full loop. Max temp is roughly 60-62c under handbrake. I just moved to 1902 bios as well. The previous bios was too damn flaky for me.
I ended up delidding my 6700k out of curiosity and it dropped my load temps by 15c on my hottest core which was totally unexpected, it wasn't just Intel's bad paste job, part of the die didn't even have paste on it. Also the glue around the edges was thicker on one side. Max OC I reached on my 6700k was 4.9ghz at 1.38v, I tried 5ghz all the way up to 1.44v then stopped trying it was crashing on windows load. I feel comfortable doing 4.8ghz for 24/7 usage since it only needs 1.34v and tops out around 70c on IBT at 25c ambient.
Incase anyone was curious I just repasted it with Gelid GC Extreme and didn't reglue it.
