The strangeness continues...
Today I decided to try something different. So I set my bclk to 125, adjusted memory memory settings so they still run at stock settings, set core multiplier to 30 (3750Mhz) and vCore at 1.220.
Booted just fine, did a 10 minute Intel XTU test without hiccups.
Then I bumped multiplier up to 32(4000Mhz) and once again it boots just fine and can do a 10 minute XTU test.
As I write this(on another computer) I am finishing up another XTU test with a multiplier of 34(4250Mhz), still at 1.220 vCore. And there it's done, finished just fine but the timer on the test was lagging(visually).
This is just so strange, why would a 125 bclk make everything better? Sometimes computers really don't make sense.
CPU temp was at max 41 degrees during that last test, it could probably be lower if I adjusted my fans slightly.
I'll probably try to get to 4500 Mhz in the coming days, hopefully it'll work.
If there is anything negative though, then it is that the computer is much slower to boot now. Well, everything is relative, it boots in under 30 seconds, but it's at least 10 seconds slower than without overclock. Just another little something I need to check up on.
