Question from Kentaro0o0o : "8320e in 970a SLI KRAIT EDITION"

I want to maximize my cpu's overclock, right now using OC GENIE 4 my CPU is @4.0ghz and i saw some at 4.5 even 5ghz can you please help me and teach me how to do it with MSI COMMAND CENTER or in the BIOS MENU thank you so much!!!!

not the same motherboard, but you should be able to find the same settings on your board.

sorry im a newbie about overclocking, im confused about the link i cant find the way on how to overclock my cpu sorry

I got an MSI 970a Sli Krait edition as a mobo

Which CPU cooler?

Which power supply brand and model?

first of all, update the BIOS of your motherboard via m-flash + BIOS file on an USB flash drive

edit:
please don´t open up more than one thread, or it´s going to be very difficult to help

try these settings:

can i copy the exact same setup to overclock my 8320e on this motherboard? coz i heard this 970a krait edition is not good for overclocking

 

[helpstar]

well, if it won´t boot, the overclocking failed. You would have to reset the BIOS if it does.

Normally you should overclock step by step. From low to high frequencies. First without raising voltage:

For 4.1GHz it would be:

CPU Multiplier @ 20.5
FSB @ 200
AMD Turbo: Disabled
XMP ram profile: Disabled

for 4.2GHz:
multiplier to 21

and so on

check temperatures after each raise

The problem of your board is the VRM power phase design. Too less VRMs for real overclocking there. But you can try to get it stable

how about the voltage should I change it too? because right now with OC GENIE 4 my voltage is around 1.4v - 1.43 play around that number. Is it easier to overclock it directly to 4.5 or much safer to do it 1 at a time?

 

[helpstar]

Every CPU is different, it's safer to do it in bios and not with software in Windows. Vcore shouldn't be touched unless the overclock gets unstable.

how do you know if your overclock becomes unstable? sorry super noob here 🙁

 

[helpstar]

if it boots to windows, that´s the first step to know it could be ok

then you will have to test your system e.g. with prime95 (smallfft) to get the cpu a full load. If there isn´t an error for about 8hours, it should be stable. Check the temp margin with "amd overdrive". if it´s getting near "0", it will overheat/throttle to get normal temperature.
No problem there, because the cpu will just throttle and wouldn´t be damaged by it. If it´s getting near to "0", the voltage is too high or the cooler is not sufficient or the CPU is not overclockable more then that.

do you have the link for prime95? because i dont want to just randomly download it in a wrong site or source, thanks. I got noctua d15 i hope its enough. i got 550w psu do you think PSU is also the problem?

PSU and cooler should be fine
check the thermal margin while prime95 is running about 10minutes, before overclocking, so you can compare

i run the test and it show some core stop working i saw 100 warnings and something else im not sure. but some cores passed the test. what should i do now? I overclock it to 4.5ghz

 

[helpstar]

Start raising vcore a little bit

 

[helpstar]

Start raising vcore a little bit, if the temperature is fine too

 

[Kentaro0o0o]

I think i set it @ .230000 should i go for .24000?

 

[helpstar]

try with little steps and test after each step

 

[Kentaro0o0o]

try with little steps and test after each step

i run it at 4.5ghz with +0.2900000 in volts and run it on prime95 test the one you told me and for an hour no errors or warnings everytest pass so is this stable?

 

[helpstar]

Looks fine, how high is the temperature? Read the thermal margin in amd overdrive and post the value while running prime for about 10minutes

How high is the core voltage now? Have a look at cpu-z while running prime
