Post Your Overclock!

Trinity, put a usb drive in and on any page you should be able to hit F12 and it will put a picture of what you are looking at on the USB drive. Or it could be a chipset thing. The P67 and Z68 boards have it, I dont know about the 'H' chipsets. You don't have a K serise chip or one of those boards, it is understandable that you may not have some of the options.

One small offtopic for Britton30 :
How you have that options in ASUS EFI BIOS Tool ???
I have ASUS EFI BIOS Tool 2.00.1201 and only have some options not all this.
And you have PRTScreen , I dont have this.

Sorry for offtopic but I must ask.
Trinty

No problem. The options available depend on the CPU on the board. If you could install say an i5-2500K there would be different options in your UEFI. I ahve another ASUS board with AMD AM3 socket and its options are entirely different than what Intell offers.

OK , thanks for help. Now I need new motherboard, new CPU, new.... Oh never mind.

Won't run Prime for more than a few seconds though.
But I did get to 4.8 +a bit.

Genie still in the bottle then?

Nice job, Gary. Well done. Not too bad for an AMD guy.

yeah maybe, if I want to have an auxiliary hot plate for cooking. It did pass IBT with this overclock but got up to 93C!

Hey that's EX-AMD guy.

I can run Prime at 4.6, this was for 5 hours 25 minutes. I did another run for 8 hours overnight with no errors at 4.6, max temp was 76C.

 

[Britton30]

Reached 5.0GHz, film at 11.


Follow the red arrows for the rest of the story, Hyper EVO cooler. Temps are from a 9 second run with IBT. It ran Prime for 7 minutes 14 seconds and produced an error and the temp hit 82C. But I DID hit 5GHz.
I'll hang the kahunas up now.

 

[essenbe]

Great job, Gary. Congrats. Did you have time to get it verified by CPUz? Put it in your sig.

 

[Britton30]

I can't get the validation banner to show, but there's a link.

 

[essenbe]

Goodf Job.

5ghz @ 99c Nice, You gonna try for 5.1ghz on your new Chip when you get it.:roflmao:

Stable or not, Welcome to the 5Ghz+ club

Congrats, just a few years ago that was unthinkable

Thanks t'y'all!
Back at a stable at cooler 4.6 now.

I have a 15C differential in my load temps. Does anyone else see this too? I've seen 10C before and this setup used to be that but for some reason it's increased.

 

[A Guy]

I've always seen some differences, always with the one lowest and one highest always being the same core. I've always put this down to CPU cooler attachment. 15 is quite a spread, but the lowest is the abberation, the other 3 match. What happens if you(carefully) press down on the cooler while running the tests, do you get a drop across the other 3? If the temp of the 3 is acceptable, I think you are ok, and just have a "wonder core". A Guy

 

[essenbe]

I haven't seen that much either. Both my 2500K and my 2600K have one core that runs about 10C cooler than the rest. But the other 3 cores run about the same.

Yup it's always the same core with the low temp while the others are real close. It's almost like the cool core doesn't work as hard, but task manager and resmon both show them all at 100%. I have gently twisted the CPU cooler while the stress tests run to even out the thermal material, Arctic Silver 5. This reduced temps over all about 6 degrees from initial install.

That's a cool twist
