Can you post a picture of this 98% power limit throttle? I want to see what else is going on when this is happening.
One small confusion:
Default with XMP
Core volt 1.262
TDP 126W
Temp 84*C
Score 1106
This is what you posted when you had completely stock settings, meaning your Turbo Boost and Short Boost max were very, very high - a lot higher than 108 and 130, respectively. You got max temp of 84C. I'm curious why your temperature is higher now that you have it set at 108 and 130.
And also, "I just increased it like you said, 10 at a time, but I am at 108 and 130 and still getting Power Limit Throttling and my temp was 85*C, so I really don't see how I can keep adding more, or rather what the point would be since with my Core Voltage sitting in the 1.210-1.262V range the temps are climbing too high."
- This proves that you CAN and SHOULD add more to your power. You were at maxed out power (lot higher than 108/130) and your temperatures were in the same range as you have now, except you didn't have any throttling. So there IS a point. You should definitely add more until there is no throttling. In fact, you had it up to 160 at one point from another suggestion...
As far as your computer climbing into the mid-80's, this is on the benchmark and not the stress test, so higher temperatures are expected. That's really the whole point of this thread is that Intel recommends 70-78C in temperatures, but obviously it is EASILY going over that, even with their own benchmarks on their own Intel XTU program. We're kind of beating a dead horse here, but with the 4790K, it seems like for most people you either have to cripple the processor for good temperatures, or settle for temperatures a little higher than desired. The key (and this is what I've been trying to help you do this whole time) is finding that sweet-spot where you are JUST within the right temps without crippling your system too much. =/
