Everything is up to date. It ran on a couple of 8 gig sticks at 2100 for about 8 months with the cpu at 4.8 and was fine. Then I tried pushing it to 5.0 and it didn't like it. Memtest failures left and right. I swapped the ram to 4x8gig sticks rated to 2400 and couldn't get them to run at 2400 no matter what. The best result I've come to is 4.6 on the cpu and 2100 on the ram. It'll run 4.8@2100 for days on end but as soon as I start gaming it says nope. It also says nope to 2400 on the ram regardless of cpu frequency and despite voltages and timings. I've tried upping voltages for the memory controller and it doesn't help. I'm no guru but I've researched and fiddled for days on end and can't find a fix so I've settled for 4.6 and 2100. Imo it's either the cpu or the mobo that is saying no.

I also like killing CPU's with heaps of voltage muhuahuahauha, killed some G3258s when they came out, they were a wicked dual core chip, wound it upto 4.8ghz and played GTAV smoothly! (but no where near as good as the 4ghz quad core im running now). hell sucks as my i5 4690K didn't overclock like I wanted it to :( it runs really cool on the corsair H55 (dual fans) but that's cause I only have it at 4ghz :( 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read that the memory controller in the i7 4790k's is "weak" and it's hit and miss if you can actually get your ram to run over 1600Mhz which is what the cpu is rated to handle. Heat wise it's ok and rarely sees more than 75 degrees while gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just signed up and is it worth getting the up grade? Had to get it for security and cctv network because Telstra keep changing the ip address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to get it for security and cctv network because Telstra keep changing the ip address I use uniview nvr with their cloud service, other brands have similar services but lately im going crazy about uniview cameras and NVR's cause they're awesome and cheap. I freaking love it, it is so awesome despite my upload speed being less than 1mbit! no static IP required, no more calls from clients who messed with their router/changed their router so need ports forwarded again! pretty sure long as UPNP is working its all g. if you want me to look into whether your video recorder/security system supports a similar cloud service PM me man!
