Here goes my 5GHz Clocks...

CPU : Intel Core i7 2600K
Revision : D2
BCLK : 100
Multiplier : 50
Vcore set in bios : 1.47v
Vcore on Cpu-Z : 1.47v
Cooler : Venomous X paired 2K rpm CM R4's Push Pull with Thermal Fusion 400.
Additional notes If any : Stable under all benchmarks.


Motherboard : ASUS Maximus IV Extreme Z with 3203#Latest Bios
Chipset : Z68
Additional notes if any : Room Temperature was 35 C.

Ram Type and Speed : DDR3 @ 1600 Mhz
Timings : 9-9-9-24
Volt : 1.5v
Additional notes if any : none

Stress testing was done using Prime95. Temps are going over 80C under 100% load. I guess it was because of the idle room temperature. Also need some fine tunings & need to get familiar with the BIOS more deeply.

^^ will update it tomorrow ... I think you need to get familiar with the UEFI more deeply

for cpu OC try using this or BSEL mod:

Guys today I tried to unlock my AMD Phenom X4 960T to get its 2 hidden cores working, but I failed to do so. What I did was -

>Core Unlocker to Enabled
>CPU Core Control to Manual
>Rebooted into BIOS
>Enabled the two hidden cores from BIOS
>Rebooted
>Windows Logo appears but it doesn't boot.
>Booted again in BIOS
>Disabled last Core#5
>Rebooted again, but still didn't boot.

Does this mean the cores are not stable? When I disable the core unlock feature, it boots fine.

^^ The unlocked cores must be unstable/faulty or try bumping up the cpu vcore and cpu-nb volt.

BTW, did you enabled unleashing mode / EC firmware to Hybrid state ?

didn't get you man...

Why do you need to?

Just to try it out.

I meant in the name of the AMD OCer List on page 1

Post your Overclocks in this format

 

[topgear]

^^ Thanks for mentioning it ... updated d3p's Oc on the main list - took more than a month ( overlooked it )

but that doesn't work on the mac side of the system.....

I don't have much experience with mac and it's OS .. so can't help you much except providing appropriate links and another thing is there's not many OC apps exists for mac OS.
