HD 4000 Overclock

[Casterina]

I've the i5 3570K OCed to 4.5GHz using the Gigabyte Z77 D3H motherboard, now I want to overclock the HD 4000 onboard graphics, how do I do it?

I have the same mobo as you. I've had a quick look at the manual : go into the bios, and look for 'advanced frequency settings', then 'internal graphics clock'. It says that the adjustable clock is between 400mhz and 3200mhz. I've not tried it before, so I'd recommend going up in small increments.

Actually I recalled seeing a review saying the HD4000 can hit 1350MHz, so I'd start from there.

Worst comes to worst you is your would crash or get artifacts if the graphic overclock is unstable...at that point, just lower the overclock.

What's the maximum safest voltage for the HD 4000 onboard graphics? Also what software do I use to stress test the onboard graphics?

Just play a game on it...

Mine can hit 1375mhz b4 it craps out... Very capable little igpu. Could play far cry 3 at 1080p on low with OK frame rates

I don't play games so I can't test it out with a game, is there a software to stress test the onboard graphics?

If you are not using it for gaming...I see little point in overclocking it then...?

I use the HD 4000 onboard graphics for Photoshop

download a free copy of 3d mark. Aslo Haven I think comes with a non dx11 benchmark.

HD4k is DX11.

I'll use 3D Mark and Haven to stress test the HD 4000, also what's the maximum safest voltage for the HD 4000 onboard graphics?

Can someone help me please

Why? Does your mobo not have an AUTO function?

If it's for Photoshop then there's not really much use in overclocking it.

I don't even think OpenCL is supported properly on the HD 4000 either, so you're probably better off buying a low end AMD/Nvidia GPU if you want to accelerate your work.
