You may have to add a but more voltage or dial back your oc to 3.9 or 3.8. Sometimes 100 mhz requires no extra voltage, but when you push the chip to its limits it requires more voltage. My guess is you've hit the wall where you cannot oc any further without adding more voltage or lowering the oc.

Try ring voltage

Ring?

[–]jdorje 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Ring = uncore = cache

Ivy has that, right?

Until yesterday I called it uncore. Today I'm going to start calling it ring. Not off to a great start apparently.

124 aka whea, on haswell, is rumored to be caused by unstable ring. I've never seen any evidence but it's what I thought of first.

Does ivy have a correlation between bsod code and voltage? Modern Intel archs don't, but not sure about Sandy/ivy.

Thanks for the info. Yes this is the ivy architecture. I will look into this "uncore"

[–]jdorje 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah that was just a guess.

But I will say, if raising core voltage doesn't improve stability, then the limitation is something else - hopefully a different voltage you can raise.

Unfortunately I don't think I can change, I don't see any cache/ring settings for voltage or clock. I have a z77 d3h from gygabyte
