I am trying to get a stable overclock with the i5 2500k at 4.5Ghz, and have put most of the settings in the bios in correctly in order to do so, however when trying to set the dynamic vcore, I quickly notice notice that I have to add on the extra voltage instead of just saying a set voltage which is really annoying. Anyway so just to try I add +0.060v and save the settings to the cmos and reset. Upon reseting my computer, it switches on for a few seconds and then it goes off again, it does this about 4 times before finally booting up and there is no overclocking error after the bios screen. When my computer finnaly loads i open up cpu-z to find out my core voltage and notice its only at 1.044v. So my guess at this point is that the boot loops I was experiencing were due to not enough core voltage. I reset the PC again and i go into the bios, it is at this point I see the bios tell me its actually at 1.4v for the core voltage which is actually a bit too high from what I hear. I double check the voltage again for cpu-z and its still at 1.044v so my computer is basically giving me two different voltages and I am experiencing boot-loops, so can anyone help me get a stable overclock to 4.5Ghz? thank you for any information you may give me.
The motherboard is Gigabyte Z68p-ds3 Award
The bios version is the latest F9
In the bios I have disabled most of the features which wouldent be needed which includes things like real time changes and c1e state support or something similar.
