yeah that's good temps, but I can almost guarantee you at stock settings your cpu is getting overvolted.

Stick with realbench as you can see your temps are much better with it and it's easier on your cpu.

havent touch voltage.. it is at 1.264. should i lower the voltage or just up the multiplier a few notches

You could set it manually to 1.30v then set the core ratio to 46.

Run the realbench stress test with your temp monitoring program to see you are stable and where temps are. if you're stable raise the core ratio to 47 and test again. See how far you can go with 1.30v.

If temps are good you can push higher.

ok ran at 1.3 volts 4.6 max temp 72 what do you think up multiplier or lower voltage a bit

Your temps are fine. Stress testing temps will always be higher than your gaming temps. So you can take the temps into the 80's with realbench and still be good with your gaming temps.

Just raise the core ratio to 47 and test again.

You catch on quick.:)

So far it seems like you have a good overclocking cpu.

I didn't mean to turn this into an overclocking session but if you want we can continue.

Do you want to see how far you can go?

not to the point of frying but sure. last test was at 4.8 vcore 1.30 and it failed
