Hey guys, i have the settings i need to use from OCUK but on one of them it said CPU Ratio - Manual (In bios i can only choose Auto, All core, Per core)

So im kinda confused right now
 
I dont seem to be able to disable "Intel Turbo Boost Technology", it just skips over it when i try and get to it. In the instructions i got from OCUK they said disable it

it doesnt matter aslong as you set cpu multi to whatever overclock you want 42=4.2ghz and so on

the turbo limit shouldnt interfere

Ohh ok my main concern was that is it safe, i read some things on google about it causing problems

if the turbo wont let u disable it change the added turbo voltage to its lowest setting, i think mine is 0.004 volts

I can disable it if i dont touch CPU Ratio but if i change CPU Ratio from Auto to All core it turns Intel Turbo back on

have you a setting called additional turbo voltage. i cannot disable turbo on my mobo but with this setting can reduce the voltage turbo will apply. my mobo is an asrock to.

Its ok now, what i want to do you cannot disable it. Cheers for the help though guys
 
Ive run prime95 for 2hours and everything seems ok atm but ill probably run it again tonight for a few more hours. What im wondering is, is it safe to leave running while i sleep?

Maybe try dropping that a bit, mine does 4.6 for less than that.

The only reason i have it at that is because i got these settings from OCUK as i bought a overclocked bundle but the profile caused problems so i had to reset CMOS. These were from the tech section ( but even though i dont no a lot about overclocking i agree 1.320v does seem abit high)

Any recommendations on what i should aim for?

I just built a 3570k on a gigabyte voltage locked board, we managed to get 4.3ghz stable of course without any change in voltage, you shouldn't need to go all the way up to 1.3!

Was just doing it off the settings i got told, this is my first time overclocking

Any recommendations on what i should aim for? (i have no idea)


* With a lower voltage will it run cooler?

Mine is deffo 1.25, don't know if you will be able to match it because you have a diff mobo. I didn't change anything else apart from voltage and CPU modifier

What will happen if i change it and it doesnt agree? Can i still boot to bios to change again

Yes, it will still post so you can get into bios

Ive been running Prime95 for an hour atm with 1.275v, i have a 4-5c drop in temps from my previous attempt and it seems stable. Maybe possible to go lower? Or not worth it (but i suppose the lower i can get it the better right?)

well the lower the voltage, lower the temps. Also at 1.30 you might able to run 4.5/4.6 if its stable at 1.275 at 4.4

Did another run of Prime95 for 2hours+ on 1.225. Again stable and 4c lower temps than the 1.275 attempt :) (im really happy with this one)

i just bought the same board and processor, its running x44 ok on +0.005v offset. if i step it up to 46 it BOSDs on boot and at 45 it starts crashing out the odd thing when i run prime, but its not that hot (67c after 30 mins of prime)

Whats the highes ti should push the offset? as its not a fixed voltage im just a little concerned about how much it can jump. Vcore shows as high as 1.295 when i check it in windows.

Ohhh nice, im using a fixed cpu voltage. I dont think i did anything with the x44 or offset (This is my first time doing OC :))
