For the lulz... i5-4670k + HD4600 gaming performance

[tehflamex]

i have an asrock z87 extreme4 and in oc tweaker the integrated gpu frequency is stuck on auto 0-0 how do i change it??

 

[BallaTheFeared]

lol, no idea! Try +/- or contacting Asrock manual/support.

i had a program called A-Tuning installed and it let me overclock from my desktop, so how do i test for stability? I just oc'ed to 1350MHz with no added voltage so is there a program to test for stability? ( sorry for the noobieness, this my first gaming pc )

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Games!

Preferably not hardcore ones!

Play the games you want to play. If it crashes, turn down the overclock

Okay i juat tired AC4 and it crashed( at 1400MHz) so do i up the voltage or lower the oc?

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Voltage up to 1.25v is fine imo, after that it doesn't seem to scale.

 

[tehflamex]

So put the voltage to 1.25 and increase MHZ?

 

[tehflamex]

So when a game crashes i increase the voltage??

 

[tehflamex]

Voltage up to 1.25v is fine imo, after that it doesn't seem to scale.

Should i see an increase in fps overclocked at 1450mhz?

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Since you're not quite on familiar ground, try using 1.15v and see what that gets you to.

You should unless you are bandwidth limited

Whats your ram speed?

 

[tehflamex]

My ram speed is ddr3 1600 and whats bandwidth limited?

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Igpu uses your system ram, 1600mhz is too slow you should oc that first.

 

[tehflamex]

Igpu uses your system ram, 1600mhz is too slow you should oc that first.

and how do i overclock that? Will i need a separate cooler or something for ram?

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Depends on your board, mine defaulted my 1600 ram all the way up to 2400 before it stopped posting.

After that I just added more voltage and tightened the timings.

Here is a video, I haven't watched all of it but it should get you started.

Welcome to the wonderful world of free performance

 

[tehflamex]

Thx balla, ill continue this stuff tomorrow, new years stuff todo

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Just let me know if you have any issues, I'll help as best I can.

 

[tehflamex]

I overclocked my ram to 1866. 9-10-10-30, is this fast enough to overclock the intel hd 4600? My ram would let me go up to 2000 but the guy in the video said to take it down a notch so i did.. So is 1866 fast enough to overclocked intel hd 4600???

 

[BallaTheFeared]

How much voltage are you giving the ram?

You can overclock the HD4600 on 1600 ram, you'll just be bandwidth limited like most iGPUs are now.

 

[tehflamex]

I gave it 1.575

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Is it 1.5 stock?

 

[tehflamex]

Yes it is

 

[BallaTheFeared]

Try 2133 @ 13-13-13-39 1.65v, you have haswell right?

 

[tehflamex]

Yeah i got haswell, i tired 2133 12-12-12 -36 and it didnt work but ill try this

 

[tehflamex]

Is 1.65 v safe?
