hi guys. now i have my net and have downloaded the programes needed to monitor my pc well overclocking my CPU. i have managed to clock it to 4.5 just by upping the multi and a little voltage (1.44 ).
thats all good, but i want more Powar!!!
i upped it to 4.6, and when running prime for 2 to 3 minutes, core 4 and 5 stop working.
so i upped the voltage, and kept doing it untill i felt safe lol, (1.48).
i was still getting the workers stopping, but only worker 5 this time.
so turned of everything i needed to in bios, i.e cnc, le1 etc etc. still getting the same thing.
so the question is. what else do i need todo, look out for in order to get it up more ?
under prime load at 4.5 it reached 57c. so still got abit more room
also another question is, when doing a torture test in prime, which is the best one to choose ?, blend or full on heat test ?
iv allways run the full heat test. (i dont know why, i just have
)
anyway, hope someone could give me a helping hand a little bit
my system specs here
M5A97 LE 2.0 board
FX6300
HD 7850 XFX ghost
Corsair XMS3 1600mhz RAM DDR3
If there's any other info you need, let me know.
thanks
