Ok looks like I ought to try it am running an i5 3570K at stock on an Asus P8Z77-V board I have the RAM set at 2400 so where do I go in the EUFI BIOS to ramp the CPU up say to 4GHz? (It's turboed at 3.7 now)

John, go to AI Tweaker and set it to Manual. In the CPU Ratio you should be able to type in 40. then go down the list to RAM and make sure it's still set to 2400 and the timings in DRAM timing is as the label on the sticks say. Press F10 and Save and Reset.

Nice OC Brian

Done running at 4200 and he RAM 2400 temps are slightly up on normal say 1C 2C max and it seems to flick between apps that little bit quicker.:)

It is normal to run a bit hotter, don't crank it up any higher without help. Your volts are still on auto I suspect and it can cook it.

Ok Gary I might just wind it back to 4000 then even that is faster than turbo after all eh?

Right, you should be OK at 42 though, as long as you don't get a BSOD.

No mate I just checked the CPU temp in the BIOS and it is at 29C .

Now a bit OT those hot plugs are they meant to be disabled as my docked 500GB spinner is not listed in that Advanced screen.

The machine is running like a demon and I am shortly going to see what my reboot and WEI readings are.:)

Don't rely on what BIOS temps are shown the CPU has very little load there and is generally running at 1600-2200MHz.
Didn't you install Core Temp? That's what we use for the most part.

I have all hot plugs DISabled.
