Good to know. You do you realize that Turbo only Boosts a single core to 4ghz? For apps/games that use more than two cores, it drops down. It's pretty much a guarantee that you'd at least hit 4.4ghz with minimum effort. Quote: BTW i use that program cause it doesn't make me figure out all the hz and bus speeds and all that. Simple GUI.

I used easytune and it seemed to give me issues... motherboard said it ran in to issues restore to failsafe defaults, etc... so i did that. Then i found the setting the reduces something so that when u overclock it improves performance, sorry i dont know the name of it, exactly unless i was in the BIOS. i know its in the Tweaking section where the overclocking stuff is... I would like to know how to use this utility. It seems a little more advanced butits made by intel, so maybe i will have better luck. I've also attached a screenshot of it installed on my computer. maybe you can look at it and see if it contains that other info u said need to watch out for asides from the temp, the CPU Voltage. Thanks for your help man. At the very least, at least my temps are AWESOME with this H100. |

| | Fixed ! The following thread explains the issue a little bit more and then leads to another link for properly overclocking with my current build. Screenshots and everything OCing from BIOS instead of using Utility i7-2600k |
