Post Your Overclock! [2]

Nice job, LB. Nice OC and it must be a quiet machine with all those Nocs you added. Well done.

------------------
Yes it does run very quiet and cool. The fans are worth their money. If they would do something with the color.

I had the same though about the color.It does sort of grow on you though, like a pimple. I have 6 total in two rigs.

Noctua doesn't take kindly to disparaging remarks about their colors either. LOL.

Yes, I was going to say don't call them and suggest a color change. But, I look at it like anyone who knows computers can look at it and they know what they are. Kind of like driving down the street and seeing a Rolls Royce. It looks strange compared to other cars, but everyone recognizes what it is.

 

[Layback Bear]

That be what Noctua company is thinking. You know it when you see it.

I've come to appreciate the colrs. As was said, it's also become sort of a status symbol...but instead of just flash, there is substance. A Guy

Thanks for the welcome. Still workin on 4.4. Needs alot of judicious tweaks, not sure how to get it stable just yet. Right now i am just bumping the multi and cpu v, currently at 21x and 1.468 volts. light adjustments to dram v and cpu nb v as well. My board does not seem to like fsb (HT clock) adjustments all that well.

I have one of those CPU. You should be able to get 4.6 with little trouble. I have an 880G board though.
Try to keep the Rated FSB close to 2000 and NB frequency can go higher and I think your multiplier as well. You can try 260x17 or 18.

I have tried at 240 x 17.5 for 4.2G, not stable at all. Think the board is holding me back a bit. (Possibly a weak CPU?) Current settings; CPU NB@ 2600, CPUNB V @1.3v, FSB @ 200, HT @2000, RAM @ 1600, 8,8,8,24,30,1T, CPUv @ 1.468, CPU multi @ 21x, C&Q enabled = 4.2 Ghz stable 24/7/365. I have tried higher without C&Q, unstable. Still workin on it though.

 

[chromatica]

Just uped from 4.2 to 4.4

 

[tw33k]

Finally got my board after 2 months wiating for RMA. Actually, ASRock sent me a new one (brand new with latest BIOS) Anyway, I got my 3770K @ 4.6GHz fully stable (no WHEA errors even) on 1.248v (offset)
I'm very happy.

I'm tempted to grab another chip and try de-lidding it.

 

[A Guy]

Good one Mark. Glad you are happy now

Not stable and not the best voltage, but they say that half the fun is gettion there.

 

[A Guy]

There you go Very good Steve. A Guy

Nice one Steve.

Wow! Very good Steve, we don't see many 5GHz of any kind. It would be interesting if Maxxmem would run at that clock.

 

[Layback Bear]

Steve 5.0 Wow. Just curious what kind of temp with cpu volts that high.

We don't want to talk about that do we? lol. I hit 96 before I quit, but I could tell it wasn't stable anyway and I wasn't going to try any more voltage. I may be crazy, but not that crazy. Maybe there is a setting in bios that will bring the vcore down. If there is one, this board has it, I just don't know what it is.

This bios confuses the crap out of me. This is my 3rd UEFI bios board so, I felt like I had some understanding of how it works until I saw this one. It has more optioins than the other 2 combined. It even has options for using LN2. The options for setting ram timings is about 6 pages long. When they named this board 'Extreme' they meant it.

 

[Layback Bear]

I have never used a UEFI board so I will be of no help there. You would think a basic setting such as vcore would be easy to find and set. I got faith you will find it. Lowering it a few tenths might bring you where you want to be. But of course their is always that LN2 option.
