Morlock free?

Ouch, that is scorching!

Definitely not a 24/7 setup all right


(Still good for conversion tests though - I grabbed a 'real world temp' screenie of it at 5.2ghz and a CPU-Z validation for the heck of it :) )

That really was smoking. My hat's off to you. Congratulations.

Is TjMax really 98C for that 2500K? It would help to grab some screens of the UEFI settings.

Thank you sir :)

Unfortunately I hit a wall @ 5.3ghz. It lasted long enough to grab this screenie:



x124 seconds into P95

And it simply won't boot @ 5.4

(It was getting close to suicide volts)

Yep. I'd take some shots if I could find my camera


I think I'll stick for a 24/7 of 4.7ghz for now and concentrate on lowering RAM volts.

Ahh, I assumed your UEFI had the option of taking a shot. The one on my (twice RMAed) ASRock board does but saves it to an attached USB stick.
2GHz over stock ain't bad at all.

Tbh, I haven't looked that hard. I might take a closer next time.

Certainly can't complain about a 'free' extra 2ghz

I believe yours will. I know someone with an Asus 1155 UEFI and mine does too, I put a USB in and press F12 and it will put a screenshot of the bios page I am on in the USB. It can come in handy for overclocking or sharing your bios settings with someone else.

Yep, F12 on mine.

Tried it yesterday to send a couple of pics to Steve.

Bugger me, so it does Thanks guys.

(Now I've just got to find one of my bloody USB drives )

Cool Patrick. Check, it may have to be in FAT32 format, don't remember.
