OCUK Sandy Bridge, SB-E and Ivy Bridge 5GHZ Club

[SimonMaltby]

Here's my quick attempt. I run it at [email protected] all the time, just thought I'd go for 5GHz, ended up not bad at 5.2GHz. I could go for more but I only have a Arctic Cooler 13 and it was getting hot whilst using prime.

Welcome to the club hominid... you are now on the list

 

[ChrisGTL]

Can I join?

 

[ChrisGTL]

I'm bored.........

Sorry to go off topic guys but rather than a new thread, i am looking for a new CPU cooler and i was wondering what people recommended as you clearly are overclocking your chips etc so your using good cooling.

Looking to spend around £20 or so. On the stock cooler and my i5 2300 i am on 77c which is quite hot?

 

[ChrisGTL]

and it just keeps going.....

and going....

struggling now.... lol

2nd person to recommend that, so thats what i will go for i think.

Unless there is any other suggestions?

Thanks

Cooler master hyper 212 plus, or the new hyper 212 evo. A little better than the tranquillo, and cheap. It is also capable to mount 2 fans. Or the Titan Fenrir, performs even better.

ChrisGTL... Get you ram optimised, you should be able to beat Bos to be the top 2500K with a little bit of work

Would I do this by upping the BLCK slightly?

 

[ChrisGTL]

Looks like I'm top 2500k chap for now

My 5ghz, still playing around with things, fairly confident I could get it to post long enough for a PI run above 5.2ghz. Still testing stablility with this clock, strangely enough 100x50 needs in excess of 1.45v to be even close to IBT stable, buy 102.1x49 is 10 IBT runs solid so far, will give it 30-50 runs later and see how I get on:

Very nice clocks at that voltage, well done

Cheers, took some doing playing with the BLCK but got there in the end - I used more vcore than needed as my other 5.5Ghz run was only at 1.424v.

Quite chuffed if I do say so myself.

Nicely done and slotted into 9th possition overall and indeed top 2500K

Having trouble keeping a 4.6 stable OC, but that didnt stop me from testing out 5ghz. Still it needed more volts that i wanted, managed to lower it to 1.432 but any less it fails make it to the desktop.

I did go for higher than 5ghz, but kinda forgot resetting cmos turns off ahci on the sata ports, so most my failed booted were nothing todo with the oc! its late i'll try another time.

Hi

Can I join, [email protected], 2600k HT disabled but C1E throttling enabled, using offset voltage.

Cheers

 

[Howling]

Felt left out - so I decided to join the club
