Hello HF Community,
I've successfully have OC my Asus Z87 board + Intel Core i5 4670K to 4.6 MHz (typically I leave it at 4.2). However, a burning question remains: why is it, no matter what OC setting I use (3.8-4.6 MHz), my CORE SPEED always reads off by 1.x and memory too.
Example:
4.6 MHZ OC / CORE SPEED (according to CPU-Z, SPECCY, etc) reads 4598.93 MHz / MEMORY reads @ 3799.1 MHz (it should be at 3800 MHz) / BUS SPEED reads @ 99.98 (should be at 100 MHz).
Regardless where I set my over-clock, it's always off by a "smidge" .....why? what could be the reason for this minor offset reported? I've tried GOOGLE, but I'm coming up with nothing: OC, I need your advice/experience on this one! Please assist!
