Post Your Overclock! [2]

[Dave76]

Finally got to delid my 3770K and the results are fantastic. I used Liquid Ultra on all 4 surfaces

The delta temp dropped 22.5c!

Congrats, that's a great improvement

New chip arrived and it's awesome! Batch #: 3230B378 Costa Rica

Nice, which one are you going to keep?

Wow, looks like you got a cracking one there! Very low volts for 4.6

I'm keeping both because there's a problem with the one I delidded. The IMC is screwed up and only 1 DIMM works. I want to play around with it some more to see if I can get the others working

I definitely got lucky with this chip. Real low voltage needed. Also, I've seen lots of Ivy Bridge chips, including 2 others that I've owned, which display 1 core as 10c+ higher than the other cores while the system is idle. This chip doesn't. All cores are basically the same temp. I don't think I'm going to delid this one. Too risky

I had the chip this high but it called for too much voltage to be stable for a 100mhz gain im still happy with 4.7 Ghz 24/7 not shabby at all

Good one Tommy to have 8 cores pumping iron!

yeah it's good to get your bang for your buck i just don't want to pump so much voltage into that chip seems like it oc's well in low voltage compared to others who are going as high 1.52 volts

I remember a friend getting a 2GHz CPU and we were all "WOW! 2GHz!!" Lol. A Guy

Isn't that the truth I remember starting out with a Packbell in 95 133mhz 16mb of ram running win 95 I thought i was flying when i slipped in a 200mhz chip and added another 16mb hahaha for a total of 32 mb

I remember getting my first computer. A Commodore64. I thought I was big time then. An Iphone will do more now. And there was no internet so not much you could do with one.

 

[paulpicks21]

I don't know about an iphone, I think even a cheap £20 phone will do more now! It's insane how fast and far things have come along now.

New computer

Finally got my new computer hooked up and finished today

Played with it a little, not used to intel anymore.

Here are my results:

Nice rig and nice OC Rod, and welcome to seven forums!

 

[ganjiry]

+1 Nice oc Rod Welcome to Seven Forums

 

[essenbe]

Nice overclock, Rod. Well done. Welcome to Seven Forums and hope to see you around quite often.

It's hard, getting used to intel again. I've had AMD for a few years, forget how intel works. This processor (i7 3770K) is unlocked, but with this motherboard (sabertooth Z77) i can't put multiplier past 36 and the turbo sets itself to enable, and it's not an option to turn it off.
i have changes made in the bios, but they're not showing when i start windows with cpu-id

In bios set AI overclock Tuner to Manual, Turbo ratio to manual and ratio synchronizing control to enabled (to set multiplier to all cores). You will have to set ram frequency, timings and voltage by hand. Leave Bclk/PEG to 100.00. You overclock these with the multiplier.

 

[rodpgfx]

Thanks, but I think I already have those things done. There's a place where I can change the multiplier other than the first page. I set it to, say, 48, but when I boot comp it shows 46

 

[rodpgfx]

This is what I am doing. I setup the bios with 48, when I go to the desktop and run cpu-id, it shows 46
