Hey Mick,

Noticed you did this by upping the bus speed, are there any advantages to doing it this way? wouldnt mind trying it myself, anything I have to be aware before doing this?

Thanks

I like messing ...lol Higher BUS speeds = better performance.
Other than upping the SA voltage a little. Use 125 BCLK and the 1.25 strap so the rest of the other bus speeds are back in spec. Just try it and see how you fare.
My system is pretty stable so haven't bothered trying at a lower BCLK
 
Upped the ante a bit and ran it for 13 hours with Grid Auto Sport running the whole time as well. Ran Grid in looped benchmark mode. GTX 980 is also clocked to 1420Mhz Core and 8GHz Memory.

Seems pretty stable to me. Another vid...

Where would I find this strap setting Mick? here is a screenshot of my bios, I noticed when ajusting the base clock it knocks the memory up ( not saved anything yet )

Your base clock gear ratio....same thing.
Looks like its already at 1.25, probably when you upped the bclk to 125 your board did it automatically.

Might be a good idea to set the memory to a safe option, ie one you know works for the time being

It's not hard...if you wanna willy wave...with a clock then do it...that's what we did in the old days...unless your clock was stable for 12 hours you had no credence....this is 8 and yet no one apart from three can muster it....

I wanna see a 4.5ghz on 1.275v ....I'm. Not convinced...

Most I can get is 4.3 stable on mine, tried a few different ways but I cant even get a boot

whats the secret to getting 4.5?
