    I7 920 IS AMAZING
    It’s very very clockable and has stunning performance .
    Beautiful core !!

    @matt999b To be more precise: overclocking is safe as long as the cpu doesn’t reach or go too near the Tjunction max – temperature at full load. Core i7 processor’s Tj-max is 100°C or 212°F. At Tj-max the cpu itself begins to lower its frequency and voltage to cool it down. You should use Prime95 to torture-test your computer and monitor the temps for at least an hour to ensure that your overclocked computer is really stable.

    @Julligankoga diffrent CPU need different voltage

    @Oos17 It’ll be safe as long as your CPU doesn’t go over 70 degrees.

  16. Oos17 says:

    whats the highest(and still safe) you can get with the stock cooler?

  17. pinksock133 says:

    @roflschofel Wait you used the stock cooler? I thought everyone was saying it was a necessity to have a third party cooler if you planned on doing any gaming even at stock speed.

    I have a gigabyte ex58 motherboard, no one made a tutorial to overclock and it pisses mé of !!

  19. WWoodyW says:

    Want to try this with mine, but I just have the stock cooling. Can’t really afford anything right now. What is probably the highest I would want to overclock it to and what is the max temp that I would want to keep it in?

  20. neverdead01 says:

    On stock cooling!?! Nice job

  21. NateFosterSR says:

    Nice vid im going to try to build almost the same setup

  22. leepordgeko says:

    Vcore on i7 is safe to 1.5v it depends on your cooling, the i7 will do up to 100 degrees as well on stock cooler that was risky but anything like a ultra 120 termalright will do that and get you in the high 50 degree range at 3.8ghz

  23. Pietentrekker says:

    I have run my C0 at 1.45V before and temps never reached 50°C idle. I think your temperatures will limit your overclock before your voltage will. I’ve seen people hit 1.6V for benching prooving it can handle it. For 24/7 use everything below 1.42V I considder safe unless you’re planning on using your i7 for over 5 years, which obviously, I’m not.
