Official Seven Forums Overclock Leader boards [2]

Thanks guys, it's the standard Asus one. I heard it overclocks amazing.

But yea i fried a bunch of CPUs lol

This one? Graphics Cards - GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5 - ASUS

Yeah from what I hear they are great cards.

Yuppp

Glad it went well NoN. Nice job

Harrie, unless you are having heat issues I would not risk it.

Noober, you kept that quiet unless I missed you posting about it somewhere when it went wrong?

Thanks Paul, I'm pretty glad too!!!!:)

I remember Noober have talk or meant about it in a post a while ago...we'll have to dig it and he was a new forum member at that time. Too bad for him !

It was a few months ago. I never mentioned it on here. But anywoot, I just bought my 780, so I'll have some new benches up on Friday hopefully!

Or you started talk about that Core...Good for your new GPU!

Yea I never said anything about it cause quite frankly, it was stupid of me. But now I'm just like $+%# it. Lol

We all do stupid things. Like the time I fried a 3770K by chucking over 1.9V though it. I am sure everyone remembers that pmsl.

This i remember it well....one of that assumed "Suicide Run"!!

Congrats on the GPU Noober

Thanks!

Going to be doing some RAM Overclocking later, any tips?

Yeah Don't unless you have high speed ram with heatsinks otherwise the PC will be unstable.

OCing RAM really has no benefits because its already fast enough. also, higher speeds means higher latency

hyperx Blu 1600mhz? any good?

With the board H87 you have i can only see a try to raise the Frequency BCLK/PEG from 101MHz to 103MHz. This will boost the overall performances but against the PCI-E slots that might over being powered with higher frequencies. I doubt you could go higher than that 103MHz without the risk of damaging your hardware.

Its not really worth it then

I did just run a IBT tonight to see what's going on with this freshly delidded Core i5 K...

I have also redo my thermal paste "in & out" and seems to have gain 2°C on Core #2 and same for the Core #0. This added from the overall 3°C gain ?!?.

But i do have always that 7°C difference with Core #1 and Core #3.

Note that i'm actually using a 8,5W/mK non conductive Thermal Paste, which i'll change in a month or so for one 16W/mK nano aluminum.

Edit:
I found back a thread i was reading two years ago when i bought my Core and they started talk about the heat issue and delidding: Removed the IHS from an Ivy Bridge i5 3570k , seeing the results the guy posted at that time did not encourage me to do it back then...


@Harrie P,

Its not really worth it then

Let's say 102MHz is the safest to run. I did run for a big while at 103MHz BCLK my previous board H77 without issues (was using this actual unlocked Core "K" too).
