is auto overclock good for noobs like me ?

Brandon, why on your task manager pic do you not have any history? It's just pegged at 100% on your overall scale? Did you snap a pic right when you started stress testing?

My suggestion it to leave the bus alone and up the multiplier. Voltage range typically should be 1.25-1.35v (I think 1.4-1.45v is pretty much max 24/7 if your cooling can handle it). You have other tweaks you might have to make such as PLL voltage.
Jacking up the FSB can lead to corrupted files and various other instabilities. Im shocked you got it as high as you have already by just upping the fsb.

it wasn't me it was auto OC and you mean that fps is high yes ? well .....



about task manager ..... it was 5 mins stress run on aida nothing more and just showed temps 51C on full load .... i think it's great


i have no idea what is PLL voltage. and even if i found it in BIOS idk how to manage it ... seems like i have to read many books or forums to OC well and stable

so what with bus speed guys ? leave it to 126mhz or change multipiller and set bus speed to 100 mhz ? i have no idea how to change other variables


can i do that thng ? :


set overclock to auto ..... then change multipiller to 44 and bus speed to 100 mhz .... so just let "auto overclock" to manage other variables and manually just change multipiller and bus speed ya ? and also i think it would be better to don't touch voltage also and leave it at 1.3 .. i hope that will be enough for 4.4 GHZ ....



now about heatsink .... what can you recommend me guys instead my heatsink ? to keep CPU cooler ... under 60-65 altime with 4.4 GHZ

Easy quick settings
Oc settings - set to manual
Multiplier - 44
CPU v - 1.3-1.35v

You should post pics using core temp, Intel burn test or similar and let the system heat up watching temps for a couple minutes. How much do you want to spend on a cooler? I own the d14 and love it but you could also run one of the all in one water coolers.

stop off top please and help me guys

Apologies I thought I was posting in a different thread which has been OT for quite a while now.

great i will try now that settings


cooler ? well ... i will spent money for cooler which just will keep temps under 65 or 60 C idk what a cooler will be enough for that ...

here you go guys ....

multipiller is 44 and buss is 100 ... also i set voltage on bios to 1.31 ....


no screen you see that it is 1.296 on load and it jumps sometimes to 1.304
temp is 55 C while 5 min load on aida 64 ....


so maybe even keep my cooler til summer ? under 55 C is great i guess ... not even near to max allowed temperature (66-67C)

How to test now stability ? Run prime few hours ?

Run IBT and Prime. If it doesn't fail early it's generally clear, run it for a few hours to make sure.

If you have the time and motivation, this is where you start playing with the settings. If you don't want to buy a new heatsink, try lowering the voltage and speed a bit more. I'd be surprised if you couldn't do 4.2 Ghz at something closer to 1.2V. But keep it at 44 for now, and lower the voltage in bios down by .01V until it crashes in IBT/Prime.

I would even recommend the opposite direction. Set it to stock voltage (not auto), and raise the multiplier until it starts crashing. You might be surprised at what it can do, and if it's enough for you, then you don't have the heat issues with the higher voltages.

When I upgraded my main PC to an i5-2500K, I manually tweaked it to get it to run at 4.2GHZ. When I upgraded my second PC to a FX-4100, I was too lazy and get let the MSI OC Genie II do the overclocking.
