How've you managed to get this with an MSI P67 mobo? If I set mine to 100MHz I get 99.8 which, with a multiplier of 50, doesn't give me 5GHz. Is this just the GD65 that does this 'cos it's really annoying?!

You set your BCLK to 1002 and that gives you round numbers (well nearly)

My GD65 only lets me increase in intervals though, I can have either BCLK=1000 or BCLK=1007, nothing in between. :confused:


Anyway, my golden chip seems to have struck again at 5.1GHz.
VCore in BIOS: 1.375
VCore in CPU-Z 1.56.2: 1.392

I'm not gonna lie though, I had a bit of an adventure getting there!
Took me ages to get it stable enough to get a screen shot and when I did there was no hanging around. I didn't want to go over 1.4V in CPU-Z and was originally trying to get the bench at 1.370V in BIOS, in the end I had to concede to myself and raise VCore to 1.375.
So once I had it stable enough I attempted some screen shots followed by a rapid restart.

First attempt (I imagine I'd have got some stick trying to rely on this one! What an error.):

Second go (Really wasn't happy with this SuperPi result, god knows what happened!):

Third time lucky:

Is there any chance of showing what processor people are using in the list on the front page?

EDIT:
Just realised I'm the 2nd highest 2500k, really want to try beat Adyx now but daren't put that much voltage through it!

Daz, you've screenshotted it after it's slowed down mate, it's only showing you at 1.6GHz, not really a record there is it lol

With a SuperPI time of 7.1, I'm not doubting your overclock - post another screenshot when it's still loaded so we can see your full speed :)

This run was to get on the table and yes it still should count.

I understand and have updated your score... however without the screen shot showing the 5.2GHz there is nothing to prove what speed it's run at... As you were at 5.2GHz before and this is just a lower Super-Pi score, I don't see the harm in updating your score :)

It's a pain when it dropps back to x16 before you take the screen grab... but we must all ensure its taken while at 5.GHz + please.

Hello Dazboot You have a good CPU and your board is fine too.

Here are a couple of tips to help you break your 7sec target.

Open Super PI
Run 16 twice
Run 1 Mil once
Open Task Manager
Set affinity to CPU 04
Set Priority to High or real time if you have a stable overclock.
Make sure that all the stuff running in the background like AV or downloads are closed.
Close all the stuff that you do not need in task manager.

I have 12 services in total including explorer running when I bench

Have fun
