I was wondering how i should set the fan speeds in order to maintain the best airflow in the first place sir

I have a Corsair 780t case with 2 140mm fans in the front and a 120mm fan at the bottom for intake, a 140mm rear fan and a 280mm AIO rad fans at the top for exhaust. All fans except the radiator ones are high airflow dc fans with ~1150 max prm. I have an overclocked 6850k as a cpu (so the fans...

I'm not even pushing the vccsa for that 3000 mhz, there's plenty of room for it so far. I am sure I can tighten the timings and go for something like 3200. The MC is weak but using 125 strap for high freq ram is needed and works perfect. I guess I should go quad channel if I want any...

I'm running my Kingston Predator (HX430C15PB3K2/32) memory at standard 3000 mhz profile. Timings are 15-17-17-36 2T. Voltage is 1.35. Should I go into overclocking and is it even worth trying? Also, what RTL and IOL settings should I try? Will I even see the difference in performance? I'm...

you can see my specs in my signature

and what if i would add 2 fans for intake at the bottom? the same arrangement for that rear fan?

So I have a corsair 780t case with 2 140mm front fans for intake, one 140 mm fan in the back (flipped for intake considering that I'm not using air cpu cooler), and a cpu water cooling radiator with 2 140mm fans for exhaust. Should I flip the fan in the back for exhaust? Or am I good?

my gpu by itself consuming more than 250 W

i don't know where and how you are reading :) but, in x99 case, ddr4 over 2400 mhz changes the blck to 125, it's the broadwell-e only thing and it's for stability purposes. just trying to improve your knowledge on the topic https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/bclk-change-from-xmp.220683/...

i will definitely check it later today and give you my report. i guess i could push the clock more and it will be overall stable except the fire strike test. sometimes it fails the test even on my current settings, sometimes it's ok with that 20 times loop

I've given you a wide info on how XMP can overclock cpu - through the bclk size of motherboard that changes both cpu and menory frequency. it's needed to speed up bus clock so the cpu will work good with that RAM frequency. i'm new to this, but that's just the way it is. Do you research if you...

Hey, thank you for your reply. I guess if it fails one test, it doesn't matter with the others, does it? correct me if i'm wrong

from the intel data from the link you gave: "XMP features: Easy overclocking (novice) Enables end users to easily overclock their platforms by selecting the appropriate profile instead of adjusting individual parameters in BIOS. Reselecting the default profile resets the platform to default...

in my case with 6850k and strix x99 gaming, xmp profile for my hyperx predator 2x16@3000mhz overclockes my cpu to 4000 mhz changing the bclk to 125. so YES it adjusts your CPU for a proper RAM work i'm new to cpu overclocking, and now in search of an advice on overclocking it a bit more over...

How comes that XMP is not related to the CPU speed? in my case, it changes the bclk size to 125 and maybe some other stats as seen on screenshot. Default for 6850k is 3.2 Ghz. now it's running 4 Ghz all cores. I did 0 overclocking manually at the moment, it's only XMP. and yes, I'm playing at...
