Post Your Overclock!

The only BSOD I've had since this system was put together came from a game - Skyrim

There were periods where BSOD's were practically my wallpaper

Anyway you guys enjoy your new systems while stick with my i7-950 system a lil longer

1366 is still a damn powerhouse - Those on 775 are really only starting to notice the limitations now. You've got plenty of miles left in yours :)

The main reason I went with SB was because of the impulse buy of my Lian Li case (and I needed a distraction at the time). I was going to do an X79 build but realised 'mainstream' is enough for me these days. I'm in no rush to go back to dual/multi card setups and I'm over being 'ahead' by being an early adopter.

(I even toyed with idea of a Bulldozer build - then it was released... )

This is probably the only forum I regularly change my avatar - don't know why

I just hit the tpu switch on my mobo and it oc'd mine to 4.3 at 100% load my temps don't go past 62. Are those good temps? I'm on a simple hyper 212. I'm not like a pro at oc'ing, I remembered my board had a switch and I flipped it lol. I ran prime 95 for like 2 hours I think and it was looking good. I got a bsod but that was totally my fault. Ima run it longer when I get some time, but from what I saw it was going good

My Evo sent this on its own.

Temps are perfectly fine, but I'd definitely check what all the voltages are being set too. Asus boards like to overvolt.

Yeah I heard about that. I didn't even check, gaahh. My eyes were on the temps and I was putting stuff into my lexa s. Ill check and see next time I boot up

My Evo sent this on its own.

Lol I was overclocking a computer of a friend and look xd: it ran stable temps where ok any higher than that BSOD's the Pc

This overclock is on air !

I'm sure your friend would be delighted to see the amount of volts you're pumping through that thing... on air

Id back off on that voltage or youll find what used to be a easy 24/7 OC can no longer be sustained with the voltages it once did.
Youll end up needing more.

Worst case scenario, default clocks/voltages may need a voltage increase to be stable.

you guys are crazy with the over clocking!

No, you don't have to be crazy to overclock, but it helps a lot.
