Help! Couldnt overclock G3258 on Asus H81M-D

[feagle]

hi, i couldnt overclock my G3258 on Asus H81M-D.

overclocked to 42, 45 or even 46, after saving the bios. rebooting into Windows 10 64bit would fail.

and going back to bios, the system is still running at 3.2ghz.

pls help.

i m running with 8GB kingston PC1600. updated to latest bios.

Yeah, there's an incompatibility issue between the pentium and a certain windows patch. There are bios updates that fix it, but those disable overclocking.

If you disable 1 core in the bios you should be able to get into windows. There you should be able to disable the patch, you might need to regedit. After that you can enable the 2nd core agian.

For some reason my system isn't bothered by this patch, so maybe you can try my settings. Set the windows powerplan to high performance (with the 1 core trick). In bios disable all c states and other powersaving. Enable fast boot (but not ultra fast boot). See if that works, I'm not running win10, so can't really test it.

Seems that Intel screwed up very HARD the Pentium OC Edition... is still alive that problem?

Yes, they banned overclocking on non-Z chipsets.

You will have to follow the directions to get around it.

They just don't want you overclocking on the lower cost chipsets.

Intel should have never let it go on for over a year if that was their intent. I remember when the chip came out and a lot of people were getting cheap non-Z motherboards and saying they're realized an update could put an end to it. I was cautious and paired mine with a Z97 just to make sure (and its fine).
