Hi all,
I am currently in the process of overclocking my 2500k system to the desired 4.5 mark.
here is the current guide i've used and it's stable so far after 12 hours prime blend with temps no higher than 65 degrees
I5 2500K 4.5GHZ
BIOS VERSION - F6
CPU CLOCK - 33X
BCLK - ( DISABLED ) left at default 100mhz
EXTREME MEMORY PROFILE XMP - ( PROFILE 1 )
SYSTEM MEMORY MULTI - ( AUTO )
CPU CLOCK RATIO [33X]
PWN FREQUENCY CONTROL [ AUTO ]
INTERNAL CPU OVER CURRENT PROTECTION [ AUTO ]
INTERNAL CPU PLL OVERVOLT [ AUTO ]
RATIO CHANGES IN OS [ DISABLED ]
INTEL BOOST TECH [ AUTO ]
RATIO 1 - 4 [ 45 ]
TURBO POWER LIMIT [ 250 ]
CORE CURRENT [ 250 ]
CPU CORES ENABLED [ ALL ]
CPU ENHANCED HALT C1E [ AUTO ]
EIST [DISABLED]
C3/C6 STATE SUPPORT [ AUTO ]
CPU THERMAL MONITOR [ DISABLED ]
BI-DIRECTIONAL PROCHOT [ AUTO ]
\Advanced Memory/
EXTREME MEMORY PROFILE X.M.P [ PROFILE 1 ]
SYSTEM MEMORY MULTI SPD [ AUTO ]
PERFORMANCE ENHANCE [ STANDARD ]
DRAM TIMING SELECT SPD [ AUTO ]
CHANNEL A - B [ AUTO ]
\Advanced Voltage Settings/
MULTI-STEPS LOAD-LINE [ LEVEL 6 ]
CPU VCORE [ 1.330V ]
QPI/VTT VOLTAGE 1.050V [ AUTO ]
SYSTEM AGENT VOLTAGE 0.920V [ AUTO ]
DYNAMIC VCORE [ AUTO ]
GRAPHICS DVID [ AUTO ]
CPU PLL VOLTAGE 1.800V [ AUTO ]
DRAM VOLTAGE 1.500V [ 1.600V ]
DRAM VREF 0.750V [ AUTO ]
DRAM TERMINATION 0.750V [ AUTO ]
CH-A/B ATA VREF 0.750V [ AUTO ]
CH-A/B ADDRESS VREF [ AUTO ]
The only differences are that because i'm using the special edition white vengeance ram my DRAM voltages are lower. currently showing running at around 1.368v in easytune 6
My main concern is that although i appear to be stable for about 3 hours now doing prime blend. Easy tune shows my vcore being 1.392 volts.
Is this too much? because according to realtemp my vid is 1.38 so i'm guessing i will need at least that to run stable which sucks as i know some good chips run 4.5 at 1.34 volts
Anyways let me know what you guys think as i'm still new to overclocking
appreciate your time!
