Asrock Z77 Owners Club

mickyflinn · 24 May 2012 at 22:29

Starting this thread as there doesnt seem to be much out there for us a Asrock owners.

Thought we could give opinions and help to other owners and as Asrock have AXTU - The All-in-1 Tuning Software, we could send our overclock settings to each other.

Asrock motherboard list.

Count me in mate, I agree we need a thread for Asrock Z77 boards.

I for one would be interested in your overclock settings....

mickyflinn · 26 May 2012 at 12:44

I will get back to you soon, Korson

Just fine tuning the overclock

Korsun · 26 May 2012 at 21:11

cheers mate

SeraphX · 26 May 2012 at 21:23

Ahh cool,

Although don't use the AXTU lol prefer the bios tbh

my overclock settings are as follows
100x45
Vcore: 1.275v
pretty much everything else is on Auto
LLC: Level 1
Ram Vcore: 1.5v
It's IBT Stable with 20 runs nailed, Max temps never go over 65c even in the current heatwave.

Waiting for a new fitting kit for my Apogee GTZ till i really push the chip.

mickyflinn · 26 May 2012 at 22:52

Finally tweaked my settings so here goes.

Multiplier 45 x 100
Vcore FIXED 1.25
LLC Level 2
Ram Samsung green @ 2000mhz @ 1.45
All other settings on auto

You will find different temps with different software but mine doesnt go past 75c on average.

Still gonna tweak further so i will report back.

You can count me in to

I have the ASRock Z77 Extreme4 running a 2600K @ a bomb proof 4.5GHz though the CPU is more than happy to go to 5.3GHz (former board was a P67 Sabertooth)

I prefer UEFI overclocking also and will post the details up some time soon.

I have the ASRock Z77 Extreme4 running a 2600K @4200Mhz did through uefi bios

Tea_Bag · 3 Jun 2012 at 14:40

Love my Z77 Extreme 6

mickyflinn · 10 Jun 2012 at 23:21

Hi Korsun nice to see you got a good overclock , are you using fixed voltage settings or offset?

Korsun · 11 Jun 2012 at 18:23

offset mate used the guide i mentioned in another post.....

Laher · 11 Jun 2012 at 22:25

I've got this board aswell (extreme4) with a 3570k

Absolutely loving it. I'm just going to OC mine to 4.2ghz with everything on auto. Will this pump unnecessary amount of voltage through the system ? I thought auto was on stock volts :S

Cutshaw · 12 Jun 2012 at 16:51

I'm waiting on my extreme4 arriving. I should be up and running with a 3570k sometime this week. I don't think I've had an asrock board before and certainly not a board with these "funny" dimensions. It shall be interesting.

Gabriel_Symes · 12 Jun 2012 at 21:37

I have an extreme 4. It doesn't work properly

Whats the problem ?

Gabriel_Symes · 12 Jun 2012 at 22:51

Wireless mouse stuttering, Audio interference, wifi can't connect to internet. Just formatted the hard disk and reinstalled windows and getting the same problems after windows updates (just the security updates)

Cutshaw · 14 Jun 2012 at 20:08

My board arrived today and I'm just waiting on the cooler. Does anyone with an extreme4 have a handy hint about supporting the outer edge when fitting the 24pin power? Of course I could just put a hand under it, but I was ideally looking for something that gave me two free hands.

Ollie1132 · 14 Jun 2012 at 20:13

Sure Im in. My day to day clock on my 3770k:

Clock speed: 4.5Ghz
LLC: level 1
Vcore: 1.25V
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz (XMP Profile)
Everything else left well alone (did try tweaking PLL to no success)

My IB chip is probably the hottest one around considering the cooling I use should handle it fine. Currently if I prime it comes just on the 100 mark couple of times had my PC restart/BSOD because I hit 105C.
