yea its a bit high. Intel says it shouldn't be above 1.55 i believe but its everyones saying that you shouldn't really push it past 1.45 just in case. For vcore of course.

hmm, not sure what to do...I could try and mess with it myself I guess. If I wanted to keep the 4.9ghz would it be possible to slowly lower the vcore or will that just cause me to be unstable.

I watched a video by linustechtips on youtube, and according to him all you do is turn up the multiplier and slowly raise and lower the vcore till you don't crash and the system becomes stable. But then I watch others videos and they mess will all sorts of settings lol.

I would be happy with 4.4 or so, just don't want my processor to fry. Why did the tech put it so high tho if its not good to?

When you get it, call DS and have them walk you to 4.7 and lower vcore.

I'm going to have to speak with the team and see what's going on with the VCORE settings. I highly doubt that the processors are running that high. That might just be for super high stress-testing periods.
