4.5ghz - What Am I Doing Wrong?

Now this is "Vdroop". Ive never experienced it, but heard its bad on Gigabyte boards (my friend suffers with it a lot).

This is now where you need to start setting PLL and LLC, which I dont understand and I dont use, I just set my OC to stay stable with minimum Vcore, which is [email protected] (all auto to keep Speedstep working).


Im out from here, as no doubt you want to go further with it, and I have no experience with PLL and LLC (although I can learn quickly).
 
Mate, you have been a star. Sorry to have taken up a lot of your time, but i do appreciate it.

I hope that someone in the future can also get things moving by reading what we have done this evening.

Ill start reading up on PLL and LLC and see if i can understand them better and see where i can go from here.

Many thanks
 
No worries, we all start somewhere and it just takes a little help to get going.

Ive had no ends of "search, its been covered like 103120413294832895732987532794563287432654328974 times already", which of course isnt any help as no matter what, if you dont understand the OP 110%, you wont understand any of the replies.

Ill have a little read through PLL and LLC myself as I need to learn (I want to hit the 5G barrier just for benches), so if nothing else is put up on here, Ill post up what Ive found.
 
Some great help in here guy's, reading between the lines about ram voltage am I right in thinking it's better to manually set it to 1.5v than leave it on Auto? I've got mine set on auto at the moment with a 4.3 overclock, whenever I try to clock above this 4.4 or 4.5 it wont boot in to windows, just wondering if the ram set to auto Volts would cause this.
 
From getting nowhere earlier on, i am now sitting at 4.4ghz being able to run IBT for 10 Runs at Standard and again 10x Runs at High.

At one point i re flashed my bios, this was mainly eliminate any settings i had changed and knew that i would then working from a clean BIOS.

Only changes i made upto 4Ghz was changing the multiplier, setting profile1 for the Ram 9-9-9-24 and ensuring that the DRAM was set at 1.5v

To get 4.2 stable i increased the Vcore to 1.360v and LLC to 5 which then worked running IBT on std and high for 10 Runs each

Upped to 4.4 and ran the same test, and it remained stable. Then started to drop the vcore. Its now sitting at 1.345v on the Vcore and LLC being able to run IBT std and high for 10 runs.

No other settings have been changed apart from setting ACHI in intergrated peripherals.

Idle temps are about 34c.

Ill report back tomrrow when i can test some more and hopefully get to 4.5ghz.
