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

hmm im expecting the new 2700k is seriously start to "trash" the 2500k and 2600k with some of the oc's iv seem on them......i may have to upgrade to one XD
 
Back so soon! :rolleyes:

Hit 5.4GHZ but bugger me I had to go all the way upto 1.45vcore to get it. Had to set Turbo power limit to 200, allow PLL overvoltage to operate ay higher values, and, er... oh yeah, enable Turbo boost tech!

something holding you back? as the other 5.41ghz entries are sub 7 seconds.

don't think you'll be able to load into windows higher than this.

might want to get a better cooler so you can run 4.8ghz with decent temps and use it as your day to day usage speed :)

Well. I'm thinking... This ship has some extra weight we could get shot of...

Remove all unnecessary hardware and leads from the mainboard, have the fans run directly from the PSU. Use a clean user account? erm, that kind of thing..?

Then stick to the 5.4 and try to increase BLCK itty bitty by itty bitty (maybe from within windows?) and see it it plays ball to get a few less milli-seconds?

IdK :) pouring over advice on the web before I do anything.


Edit: I have not been paying that much attention to ram setting except for setting turbo there to standard, have no idea what ram settings would have some kind of synergy with this... run them low or high, tight or normal, should I get rid of as many 'autos' I can in that department...Tho I havent been seeing any ram BSOD numbers just 101 more vcore, 101 more vcore 101 more vcore :P

Any help advice would be much appreciated ofc!

Slight improvement for me, but it's the furthest I can go now, after gutting the Pc of all no essentials etc, thanks again fowler for the subliminal teachings :)

will sleep a few zZz's on where, if to go from now... cant push the BCLK any more, waaa. or the vcore, waaaaaah.

I stick! :)
 
I've read you can push the bclk to 105mhz but not recommended, most overclockers(except for real hardcore overclockers) stick to 103mhz and below. although not worth the risk for a few extra MHz core speed rise and a 0.x reduction in pi time.

another option is to do a complete reinstall of windows, just install the required drivers etc then run the super pi. not sure if this'll effect the score but with other bench marks you tend to get the best score straight after a fresh install of windows
