***Official Ivybridge Overclock Thread***

I see what all the whohar is about with the temps, i have windows open, stock cooler just doing a virus scan and im hitting 67c at stock speeds lol ! i cant wait to get my H80 on

That's a point... have had it enabled for a little while now on mine.

Can't remember the exact way to disable it from memory. Will look it up for you when get home - unless someone else tells you how before then.

Do wonder how it affects overall OCing of chip...

Just wondering if I even need it enabled at all. I have SLI, so will not use Lucid MVP for gaming. Though I have no software that supports quicksync, would be nice to be able to use it should I get such software.
 
Posted in cinebench thread, but thought would throw it here too - finally got to 10 pts. Don't know why I wanted to hit that, but finally did :D

And it looks like it took as far as I can push my chip while keeping under 100C, which is 4.925GHz with 1.29V/1.3V. Looks like will be peaking around 95C on small FFT's.

Can post some temp/cpu-z/prime screenies some other time, for now -

how much warranty is there for ib i5 3570k?is it three or one year.
if ** Do not mention competitors ** gives one year for all theirs electronics so later you've got 2 more with intel?
 
Samsung Green (MV-3V4G3D/US) 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz 30nm Dual Channel Kit [MV-3V4G3D/US], i'm really tempted to buy this but i heard with i5 2500k is not worth it to go over 1333mhz,is it true?
what about i5 3570k,will that cpu will utilize speed of that ram when I oc to 2133mhz for example?
 
You probably would have luck pushing memory higher on 3570K, but it's not guaranteed.

I have only been able to get 2000 with 1.625V (granted have tightened timings a lot) stable on my 3770K with the Samsung Green. Whereas I could run the same memory at 2133 without issue at 2133 with just 1.425V when I had 3930K and Rampage Formula board.

I don't believe memory scales much beyond 1600 on sandy bridge, and about 1866 on ivy bridge in any case.

I have not seen a SB that cant be tuned to work well at 2133mhz DRAM clock or an Ivy that can work well at 2400mhz + most do 2600+ easy. SB-E is easier to tune than SB as the latencys are inherently longer and the IMC have improved since SB.

Ivy has strong IMC every chip I have tested has strong IMC at tight timings.
 
So after reading through this thread, can i take the norm for overclocking to be 1.28-1.3v for 4.6ghz and 4.4ghz at stock volts for most chips with temps around 60c to 80c?

Maybe it's my board, maybe it's just me :)
