    Another night at the track and some tuning. Getting a lot of wheel slippage and the engines running too rich...I know I can clock in faster with a higher trap speed in the 1/4...hmmm...in due time...

      Although this was a goofy run as it froze half way through then resumed. Strange...I'll run it again.

    Nice scores :) But something is definitely odd with your 3Dm11 bench and especially your Physics score. Your 4.7GHz was totally crushed by @godfafa_kr's lower 4.5GHz overclock(Both P775 and Win Crap X).

    Takk. Yea as mentioned it was a goofy run as it glitched during the bench...I'll run it again later.

    Yes and Win Crap X. No doubt about that.

    Also your other 3Dm11 bench has a goofy Physics score, although this bench is from 4.6GHz overclock. Something is not correct with your overclock settings. Maybe too low voltage on processor :cool: Up it and try again.

    Everything reports back perfect by HWmonitor and HWinfo.

    IT doesn't throttle, the scores just go lower when trying to OC it...

    Temp reaches more than 90C though, so this *might* be something to take into account. But no throttling is recorded, speed is 4.2GHz constant if set as such.

    Voltage is 1.4V at max, which I'm not 100% sure if it's fine, but I don't want to touch on voltage...

    Are you ramping up the cache multiplier to match the CPU core multipliers?

    I noticed when tuning for low power draw, as I reduced the cache multiplier my power usage and temps went down, but so did my CPU scores. Undervolting the cache also had a reduced performance effect.

    I ended up keeping the cache on stock, and ramp up the CPU cores, and mostly undervolt the cores - then undervolt a little on the cache - as long as it didn't adversely affect scores.

    It's something I needed to play with on every CPU differently, and I haven't tried doing this on the 6700k, but it might be worth it to remove the undervolt and raise the cache multi a bit for a few test runs to see if that improves the score.

    Your frequencies are not holding up.
    There is a section in HwInfo with limit reasons. Check that for Yes or no.

    So may be buying a portable 14,000 BTU AC soon... Then I'll post some to go against Mr. Fox on his ZM... Then I'll need to add mosfets to my 980m...

    @Georgel 1.4V is enough for around 4.8GHz and all too much for 4.2 GHz, if that's what you run. 1.4V under load or idle? What is load voltage under eg.., Wprime 1024M stress test? And what is your clock speed? 4.2 GHz on all 4 cores?

    4.0 GHz on all cores.

    1.4V on full load

    Temps vary to a max of 85C

    Voltage is adaptive.

    Not trying to play with voltages at all.

    Cache was like this after CC was installed.

    I don't even try to Oc, just read the numbers...

    Way too high. Start using TS for reducing the voltage. High Voltage → Heat → Throttling. And You are sure the voltage not drop more under maximum load? Run Wprime 1024M(8 threads) and follow the voltage with Hwinfo beside. You can also use Cinebench R11.5
    I know you're worried about stability and afraid of data loss with use of under voltage. But 1.4V is really overkill :eek: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/phoenix-software-updates.794490/

    Cinebench is a better test to check for Voltage issues. Wore causes throttles with my voltages rather rarely.

    That is just the adaptive recorded voltage in cinebench tests

    wprime will not run, it crashes unknown or unexpected error.

    1.4V with Cinebench R11.5? :eek: Wprime 1024M ... run as administrator(select 8 threads in settings). Remember screen shot in the middle of all test or near the end. And as well monitor max temp http://www.mediafire.com/file/jbeswno4a4mdiy6/wPrime.exe

    Be sure and read up on each one for features, and also check how often the model you are interested in needs the collected water emptied.

    If it recycles the collected water out the hot exhaust or mixes it with the room air - you still need to have the drain plug tube go into a receptacle, drain outside, or empty the internal reservoir when it gets full.

    A little known gotcha for portable air conditioners :)

    I think 1.4v is fine if you can cool it.

    You can undervolt it if you want. I am sure it can be pushed a lot lower. but if he is already OCing and know 1.4v is a good thermal point, why bother playing with voltage....

    Problem is the adaptive voltage takes it way over, and causes the clocks to drop.

    Processor or Gpu? [email protected] is around 13440-13500P physics with Win X. But your 4.5 GHz pysics score is quite high with this garbage OS. Most people use Win 7 for 3DM11, so it,s difficult to compare.

    How can you get the GPU up to 4.5Ghz ? DUMDUM.
    But yeah, thats why i was wondering why mine is so close to yours with Win10 with that difference.

    I don't know whether there is a difference between latest Windows build (10.0.14393) vs older Windows 10 (10.0.10586). Most likely not. But drivers can make a difference :cool: Also faster ram make a difference in 3DM11 ;)

    You have the wrong laptop bro :oops:
    A very nice 4500MHz core clock on Gtx1070 in The new AWbooks can be possible with a slight overclock. Of course if Mr. Azor and Dell want it :D The NVIDIA BGA graphics must be a much better graphics than the MMX cards!! Or maybe Dell have created a pretty good tool for dynamic overclocking of the cards? And the i7BGA will be equally as good, HaHaaaaa

    What does freezing then black screen then restart mean?

    No BSOD, no error log, it just happened, like it was normal.

    No OC, no playing with values of anything, everything is stock.

    But how ?

    I just uninstalled clvo center and ran no oc , nothing . Even made sure to reset to default in bios and have everything set to default , which is lower than intended minimum speed allowed .

    I really dislike 6700k right now. Can't understand why it hates me ;_;

    I also got a complete freeze, again, just browsing Facebook.

    You can download http://www.resplendence.com/whocrashed
    Fire up the software and see if you can read the error log the software create. Run the software after each crash. Then you can search in the web and see if you find a solution on your problem. Also post what you find in the forum(Create a thread for this). :cool:

    I've had this happen to me. If you've installed either XTU and/or CC (XTU malware edition), uninstall them and do a CMOS drain. Something got goofed.

    Otherwise brother Paps onto a solution.

    Thank you !

    I'll make sure I do that !

    How do we cmos drain?

    It's impossible to take it out, it's almost soldered .

    Also , thank you for your help !


    Do you think that this should also solve my mouse jumping around problem ?

    If I have neither clvo cc nor xtu nor throttle stop nor anything else, will 6700k perform at its normal power ? (4GHz to 4.2 turbo )
