Hey 8 Pack

I wonder can you help me help me achieve 4.8ghz or 5ghz with my ivybridge??
max i can get (stable is 4.6ghz)
using: antec kuhler 920
temps under load around 65 degrees

help me 8 pack ! lol

pm please

other info:


4.6ghz

ai overclock tuner xmp
bclk 100
asus multicore enabled
turbo ratio manual
ratio synced at 46
cpu pll overvoltage auto
internal pll overvoltage auto
memory frequency ddr3 1600mhz

cpu voltage offset mode + 0.035
dram 1.5
cpu pll voltage 1.63750

cpu load line calbration ultra high
cpu power phase control extreme
cpu current capability 140%

Hyper Threading enabled

stable at 4.6.


your help appreciated master jedi :0)



p.s..... my temps suggest I can afford a little more of an overclock as i am only getting around 65 degrees under load. what do you think?

Hi 8 Pack

Thanks for your reply. I do a lot of audio and video processing on my machine. I have a dual boot of OSX and windows 7. So its for gaming and music production, this is why I thought it was better to have 24gb ram lol

So I set the VCCSA voltage to 1.1, it then turns it to a red colour, is that correct?
I cannot see the setting for VCCIO? what should i do?

I will try the offset of 0.045 and report back.

stay tuned :)
 
Hi 8 Pack

Im currently running a stability test under aida64. 17 mins and counting.

I have the VCCSA set to 1.1 (red) should I change?

BSOD

I hit the windows key to start searching for an item and i got a blue screen.

Any in put on this?

I didnt get a blue screen for the first 30 mins when the VCCSA was set to 1.1 (red) Im not sure if this matters

Looking good. That's not bad for a 3770K temps-wise. Things may get a bit toasty if you go for 5GHz though. Are you just looking to bench it or run it 24/7 at these clocks?

I definitely will not be running 24/7 at these temps lol I just want to get the highest clock achievable. I just use this machine for gaming on windows and music production in OSX.

Blue Screen at 40 mins.

But, It said that the reason for the BSOD was due to Saffire.sys, a driver error.
Saffire is my firewire audio interface. Has it got a driver problem?

Chris


Update:
I have found that there is a newer version of the driver available. Ill install this and see what happens on next stability test.

That's getting pretty warm now. Something to consider: If you don't plan on running this 24/7, then why bother stress testing? Run some benches and screenshot the results, then back it off to 4.7GHz and enjoy. Either that or pile on the volts and do a suicide run for 5GHz and get a quick superpi in before it crashes out :p

What should I use to bench?
