Skylake Issues

[sukotto85]

I seem to be having an issue with overclocking my Skylake processor.

When it comes to overclocking I am a complete novice. I overclocked my previous CPU to 4.6, without any issues. Any time I change the voltage from auto my system will not boot up.

I've tried Asus 5-way optimization which also failed. As soon as I hit start my computer won't post at all. If I leave the voltage on auto I can overclock it to 4.5.

Asus Maximus VIII Hero
Corsair h115i
Skylake 6700k

Any help will be much appreciated.

Hi Nickol,

Right, I've got it to 4.7 with a maximum temperature of 75c.

Is this temperature OK? Or should I push it further. Or maybe even drop it back to 4.6?

As you suggested, I used RealBeach.

Thanks for the help.

What does cache/ring multi do? What about adaptive? Would you use this.

I am running at 4.7Ghz at 1.34v. So very close to your setup. What temperatures are you getting at full load?

Nickol, I shall try what you've suggested.

Thanks.
