Hey All,

Does anyone have the bios profile from Overclockers for this Rig:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-031-OE&groupid=43&catid=339&subcat=

Stock Code: BU-031-OE

I used to have it but deleted it by mistake..

I think they used to call it Reliable or Magical or something like this .. please can someone help out

thanks..

If you contact ocuk's customer support, they should be able to provide you with the overclocked profile for your setup.

I phoned them up and they say they are unable to email me the profile as I returned the original order as it was unstable .. However I explained that I purchased all the parts seperately from them same as the package from overclockers so that I could try and OC myself.. The guy went to speak with his manager and then returned and said he can not send me the profile.. This isn't really fair to be honest with you.. All I wanted to use it for was as a guide to correct my OC settings in my previous thread..

The price premium associated with the bundles is payment for it turning up overclocked, you can't buy the parts separately and then ask them to send to the profile for free, if you want to overclock it yourself do so. Otherwise you pay for them to.

They don't even have a profile to send you. The settings have to be tweaked for each motherboard & cpu, since they haven't overclocked your particular motherboard and cpu they don't have a backup of the profile to send you.

This is a ridiculous thread

Yeah thanks mate.. No need to be harsh .. I am trying to learn.. thanks

I can see jonj678's point mate,have you tried searching the forums or Web for a Overclocking Guide for your gear
I'm sure you'll find some settings to try out.

Artic, thanks for your reply.. please check my previous thread :

http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18106906

you will see screen shots of my bios of what I have tried.. All running fine and stable after 3 hrs of Prime 95 stress test with 0 faults but apparently the qpi and the vcore voltages are too high.. Please can you also check the screen shots and tell me if I need to change anything .. also should I put the bclck to 191 instead of 200 with a muliplier of 21 instead of 19.. sorry mate I am a complete novice and I followed a guide for these settings for the Extreme version of the UD5

I am in need of this bios profile if anything just to give me an idea of the voltages ovrclockers use.. if anybody has purchased this bundle please can you send me an email with the bios profile just so it gives me an idea and a starting point. .. thank you..

This. I done the same and bought the parts separately and overclock my i7 rig. I was very new to overclocking back then so i basically just read up on it as much as i could and asked anything i was unsure about on here

But yeh you wont get ocuk handing out profiles for free. Its a premium you have to pay, thats why the 3.8GHz bundle costs less than the 4GHz bundle. Just do what i did and i'm sure you'll be fine mate.

I used that guide and quite a few others along with asking questions on here before i started overclocking. Its a basic guide which will do the job and give you a rough idea. That way you can start tweaking down the voltages, etc and manually setting others (not listed in that guide). This should then give you a good overclock, which is better suited to your chip as they don't all overclock the same.

Hello .. Thanks for your assitance.. seen as you have the same setup would you please be so kind to email me your profile . I would highly appreciate this..

But your not trying to learn from this thread your complaining about OcUK for a something you have got wrong.

As i said i used that guide and tweaked down as much as i could for what was stable for my chip. Yours probably won't overclock the same. Best thing to do is use that guide and those settings first and adjust the settings to run as cool as possible (whilst remaining stable) for your cpu. Plus it doesn't hurt to learn something along the way

Having said that you can use the settings in the guide and it will be fine just leaving it at that. However if you've got one of those low voltage chips then it would be a crime not to bring the voltages down for better temps.

do it yourself, overclocking is trial and error. Not gunna harm your pc unless you do something stupid like over volt or run it maxed out with a crap cooler.

Its better doing it yourself than to get somebody else to do it. It makes you feel proud that you did it yourself. You built it yourself, overclocked it yourself. All done by yourself

Listen hardware differs from batch to batch, someones profile with the exact same kit as yours will not always work, you need to find out the limitations of your hardware through tweaking and testing, this is what you pay for when you buy a bundle. If you're not willing to do the work yourself then you dont get the clockspeeds you want, it's that simple, there's more than enough information on these forums to help you get there without begging for someones bios profile.

Hey I finally got a good stable overclock at 3.8 I think (After 4 hrs of Prime 95)

Upped to the latest bioes F9m
Cpu Multi - x21
Qpi - Auto
Bclk - 181 (cpu speed 3.80)
Standard Mode
Set all my Ram dimmings to 9-9-9-24
Advanced cpu features:
Clock ratio 21
Turbo enabled
Cores enabled all
Multi-threading enabled
Enhanced halt (C1E) enabled
C3/C6/C7 state support disabled
CPU thermal monitor enabled
CPU eist function enabled
Virtualization tech enabled
Bi-directional prochot enabled

Advanced voltage control:
Load-line calibration enabled
CPU vcore 1.3500
QPI/VTT voltage :Auto
IOH core: Auto
DRAM voltage 1.66

The Rest of the settings left as Auto

Do these settings and volts look ok to you guys? I hope I am not in the danger zone..

Also why does the windows 7 64Bit (View basic information about your pc still show my cpu running as 2.66?) CPU eist function enabled which is good for me as I do not want the cpu to run at 3.8 all the time only when it needs that push.. as most the time when I leave the pc for downloads there is no point for it to run at 3.8

CPU-Z reports the cpu volt at 1.328 thats why I put my vcore to 1.35 which I think and hope is ok

Ran Prime 95 for 4-5 hrs overnight and no errors .. seems to be running stable..

My temps are : 30-38 in idle and when full load it can reach upto 73-75

Please can I have some feedback if things are ok so I can now finally after a week of messing around sit back and enjoy my New Rig

lol

Thanks for all your help ad support guys ..

Seems good to me. I'd probably want to set some of the multis manually and you could probably easily get away with a lower vcore, but apart from that all looks good if its stable after 4 hours of prime. What were your ambient room temps for those load temps by the way? I know its been pretty cold lately. Just wondered as i've got a similar setup and want to compare my 4GHz load temps

by the way is the H50 in a push/pull config?

Room temps around 18-20 degrees I have the fan on the h50 blowing air into the radiator this is what corsair reccomend but I am not using the standard fan I am using a noctua 120mm
