Windows 7 - i7-930 Overclock help

hawkin90 · 07-25-2010

Hey guys. I'm soon going to OC my 930 to 3.75GHz

What kind of settings should I use (multipliers) And should I leave the voltage on default?
RAM is 6GB 1600mhz.
Cooling is Corsair H50 and PSU is Corsair 1000W
And intel X58 chipset with asus rampage 3 motherboard, if it matters.

I'm pretty new to overclocking of processors, I have only OC'd Gpu's in the past.

Any help would be nice!

I know there is a lot of guides to overclocking, but I would like to see what you have to say as I trust this forum

There are no set rules for overclocking, it's going to be different settings for everyone to get stable so it's hard to give exact numbers for settings. This guide should help you to figure out what the best settings are for your particular hardware components.
