Hi, I have been running this overclock for a few days now, and seems stable but I would like your input as to whether I should change any settings in my Bios. Are my temps safe? Are my voltage settings ok? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
My system specs are as follows:
Case: Cooler Master Storm Trooper
Motherboard: ASRock Extreme7 Gen3
PSU: Antec True Power Quattro 850w
CPU: Core i7 2700k
CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro H80
Ram: Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1866 (9-10-9-28) 8GB (2x4GB)
Video: Galaxy GTX 680 GC SLI
Sound: Creative X-FI Titanium HD
HDD (Boot): Intel 40GB SSD (a bit old)
HDD (Games): 2x Intel 40GB SSD RAID 0 (also old)
Data Drive: Western Digital Black 2TB
DVD-R/RW Drive
Current Overclock Bios Settings: (I used the pre-loaded turbo settings, and adjusted some settings of my own)
Advanced Turbo 50 - Disabled
Load Optimized CPU OC Setting - Turbo 4.6GHz
Internal PLL Overvoltage - Disabled
Intel SpeedStep - Disabled
Core Current Limit - 150
Host Clock Override (BCLK) - 100
Spread Spectrum - Disabled
CPU Voltage Control: (pre-loaded turbo settings set the voltages way too high to my liking, so I adjusted these myself)
CPU Core Voltage - 1.328V (Offset Mode)
Offset Voltage - +0.015V
CPU Load Line Calibration - Level 4
DRAM - Auto (1.50V)
PCH - Auto (1.059V)
CPU PLL Voltage - Auto (1.832V)
VTT Voltage - Auto (1.059V)
VCCSA - Auto (0.925V)
RAM Configuration
XMP Profile: DDR3-1866MHz 9-10-9-28 1.50V
Speed: DDR3 1866MHz
Timings: 9-10-9-28
--Timings and voltage are set at RAM's defaults.
Advanced CPU Configuration
Intel Hyper Threading - Enabled
Active Cores - All
Hardware Prefetcher - Enabled
Adjacent Cache - Enabled
Enhanced Halt State C1E - Disabled
CPU C3 State - Disabled
CPU C6 State - Disabled
Package C State - Auto
CPU Thermal Throttling - Enabled
Intel Virtualization Technology - Enabled
No Execute Memory Protection - Disabled
Results
Prime95 Testing - Blend Test - 8 hours.
No errors
Maximum Temp 69-70
Idle Voltage: 1.35v
Load voltage (Vdroop?) 1.30v-1.32v
I have run Prime in intervals of 4-8 hours daily for the last 4-5 days without errors.
Is this overclock safe? Any settings I would need to change? I am fairly new to overclocking and even though I did a lot of reading well, not quite so sure :3
Suggestions are very welcome
Thank you very much!!!!!
