One can set ThreadRacer (in seconds) to run for as long as needed, example if a certain brand of thermal paste takes a couple of hours to break in for best results, then it runs for 7200 seconds. One of my favorites to use are Bitsum ThreadRacer, being that I'm a big fan of their Process Lasso app & have a Lifetime Home key (unlimited PC's, as long as they're mine!). Secondly, if it's overvolted, how do I reduce this while maintaining the CPU running at 4.6GHz? I'd assume this would make it run cooler within itself, although also gather this must be performed in very small increments, reboot, benchmark with whatever software I can (I don't do Prime95 because Ivy Bridge/Haswell owners are advised not to). Here's a pic that shows what I presume to be the current voltage fed to the CPU, which if I understand correct, is over 1.3V. In hopes of accomplishing two things, reducing temps & being able to clock my system like never before while running cooler at doing so. One thing I have noticed, is with higher frequencies, the more heat & why am going for a delid. From what I've read, it's best not to run a CPU at more than 1.3V, however, opened the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility to run a benchmark (note that I don't make adjustments with this, just bench & upload to HWBOT for submission. I never really looked to see what the stock voltages were, nor to see if any overclocking bumped this value up. Am a bit concerned about voltage, because to be honest, don't know what I'm doing. Stock is 40, was raised to 42, then a long time at 44, and this morning went to 45 & right after, 46, still running great, no BSOD (so far). Which is easily done by adjustment of the multiplier. What concerns me more than anything right now, isn't so much about the overclocking of the CPU. My long term goals are to run at somewhere in the neighborhood of 4.8 to 5.0GHz (running at 4.6GHz as of this post). My best PC, consisting of a ASUS Z97 PRO Gamer (the non-wireless variant), i7-4790K & 32GB of GSkill Trident X RAM (latter running overclocked XMP Mode #1), running decently, am soon going for a delid with liquid metal, which may mean a revisit to this Topic be later necessary. While this CPU does have a Turbo Boost, may as well not be there, as I've been running at Turbo (4.4GHz constant) since CPU was new in 2015. So here I am, and please, keep it simple, as I don't understand the first major technical thing inside of the UEFI when it comes to system tuning, other than how to increase the multiplier to bump the GHz levels upwards. Topic is partially self-explanatory, after reading, one will see that while I can build a PC, even overclock one, don't know the first thing about these critical voltages.
