Thanks Cliff, I will be watching der8auer over the course of this week and see what tips and techniques I can pickup and apply to my OC.

Now where do I get some Liquid Nitrogen

How about phase cooling?

Hi Cliff,

After watching some of his videos I decided to tweak one of my setting that I usualy always keep on Auto and that is the LLC.

I took his advice and set it to 5 (when Auto was set my LLC is at level 6 with Optimized VRM switching profile for my 4.5GHz OC and Extreme VRM profile for my 4.7GHz OC using Asus Intelligent processor 5 tool)

I tested the quick and heavy way for stability using IBT (std) and it pass with temps of 65 66 67 65
then using a custom run (testing 10Gb RAM) it failed on the 7th run (temps were 69 68 69 68)

back to BIOS and dial in Auto LLC with the following:

IBT (std) = PASS temps 67 68 68 67
IBT (custom 10Gb RAM) = PASS temps 72 71 72 70



Looks as if Asus have done a good job with this when left/ set on Auto.

Can you look at the following value I have entered in to my system and advice accordingly please:

System OC is 4.7GHz @ 1.300v (read as 1.296v)
Cache set too: 255.50 41(min) 41(max)

Voltage is adaptive with 0 off-set
LLC is Level 6
Power Phase is Extreme
CPU Current Capacity is 140%
CPU VRM switching frequency is Auto

DRAM voltage is 1.3530 (OC RAM from 2400@1.2v to 3200)
VPPDDR voltage is 2.500
CPU VCCIO is 1.125
DMI voltage is 1.13
CPU standby 1.17
CPU system agent is 1.2000

thanks

Looks good Worf, you should run good and stable with that. It looks similar to what I dialed in for adaptive at stock for me.

Thanks @Dude

Just doing a 2 hour burn in test using Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool

With your delid you should be fine. I only run mine at a higher OC for benchmarks. Im really happy with it a stock, games like a champ. My temps climb fast when I raise the OC, I need to delid too

You should as it has give my 6700k a new lease of life.

Cheers Dude

Indeed, I am impressed with your results
