i love the board.i had a gigabyte ga-p67a-ud7-b3 before that and the vcore was all over the place under load.this one is rock solid.i don't think the board is overly responsible for the oc as i bought 2 2700k's to try and the first one took a vcore of 1.42 to get stable and this chip is 1.36.although i think a cheaper board would maybe need more tweaking to get stable.all i did was wack in 50 on the multi and 1.42 on the vcore and tested till i got stable at 1.36.everything else is on auto and i set it to offset + 0.005.so it seems that the 2700k is deffo an improvment on the 2600k for oc's

Thanks for that - think I will stick with my board and enjoy it.

no point in buying 1 part and then waiting ages before buying the rest, I've just(well couple months back) have been burned by doing just that.

do you really need to upgrade? looking at your sig your pc should still be good enough to last you another 1-2yrs if not more, or you could wait till ivybridge is released in march/april.

Ok I will hold out and wait then till I have all all the cash ready to buy all the parts, and as for the reason "do I really need to upgrade ?" , yea mate, becuase I plan in keeping the new upgrade for another 3 years hopefully, so, you know what I mean now ?

Thanks man ;)

so what board was it exactly mate that you replaced the gigabyte ga-p67a-ud7-b3 with ?
 
yes my board is now the Asus maximus iv Extreme-z. i find it much more stable than the gigabyte.the vdroop on the gigabyte was all over the place

 
i agree,you get better results at high clocks.still down to the chip in the end though.i bought 2 and one needed 1.42v to be stable at 5ghz,and the one i kept needs 1.36 for 5ghz.but the point is that both chips did acheive 5ghz within safe voltage limits i just struck very lucky with one.

sorry to be a pain but can i ask your full bios settings? i know i wont get anywhere close to your oc but it would be helpfull to maybe shed some V's and gain some MHz's

i can only hit 4.8GHz at 1.36v!

so o.e.m is defo the way to go ?? (as in dont buy it boxed in the intel box etc but buy it loose instead, think thats what oem means, lol)

thats what i was asking a few posts back :)

OEM would get similar results..... The voltage requirements on most chips seem to climb dramatically over 4.6ghz.

you don't have the same board do you?
anyway heres some screen shots

the offset of 0.005 gives 1.376 in cpu-z under load.but in manual mode it was stable at 1.36

thanks mate ;)

Damn it ! lol !

I was hoping it would be a PCI-E 3.0 board as thats what I would really really prefer to get as I plan in keeping my build for like 3 years, hmmmm, back to the drawing board then, lol.

I'm just waiting and hoping someone posts a message up saying they have a pci-e 3.0 board thats running excellent doing O.C etc :(:)

is it best to install the processor graphic driver? if not, is there anyway to disable it?
Click to expand...

doesnt the intel chipset software automatically install all the drivers anyway mate (once you download it) ?? I think it used to from what I remember, I could be wrong though, maybe the 2700K has a seperate graphics driver too, would be unusual to me though, hmmmm, interesting. :confused:
