Maximus VI Impact overclock help

[Ace123]

Ive been working with this little impact for a little while now, and I am completely stumped at the moment. When I was running my trident-X 2666 I was able to get the system to at least benchmark at 4.8ghz with an h110 closed loop on the bench. Now my 4770k is nude, with an EK supremacy with naked IVY kit, and avexir 2800, and I cannot seem to get the system to even bench at 4.6. Imagine my frustration.
At this point im going to ask for help. I put the board away for a few months so perhaps I forgot a common setting that I was aware of before.
What basic settings should I be using for overclocks 4.5+?

Have you tried the Trident X kit with the de-lided cpu to see if you can achieve the same clocks?

I will, I loaned them out to a friend of mine to see if he could get his 3770k 5.2ghz Pi and Wprime scores up a little. I will get them back tomorrow. Maybe I will leave him with these 2800s and see if his Ivy has a good IMC.
On a stable note, I got the system 100% stable with the 4770k @ 4.5ghz 1.3V DDR3 2800 1T command rate, with my little gtx 670 @ 1202/3598. Should be good for gaming. I would sure like to benchmark with this though :/

Did everything get sorted Ace?

[Ace123]

Unfortunately I have not. I have given up on this CPU. I got it at launch so I assume 4.5ghz stable will be ok for a launch CPU on water considering I have seen MUCH worse. This will not be my benchmarking haswell. But then again I havnt had a chance to go grab my other memory either, but I did attempt to clock the avexir at 2666 and then 2400. I can force it into windows and make a few pi runs at 4.6 and 4.7 if I kill it with voltage. Not ideal haha. I messaged you about that other 4770k you have.
