Maximus formula VI Overclockers

[Pazmeister]

Tom had excellent review on this motherboard. I have the following rig
4770k 3.5ghz version
Maximus formula mobo
Corsair vengeance pro 32gb @ 1866mhz
Hydro h100i cooler
Corsair ax860i PSU
GTX 780 EVGA classified GPU

I have tried overclocking but only seem to get 4.2ghz at 1.200 on vcore, any tips on how to get at least 4.5ghz and which settings to adjust. Also don't fully understand the GPU over clocking any hints and tips appreciated. With price drop I'm looking to buy a second GTX780 in SLI BUT I only have 1 24" monitor will I get a resolution of 2560 x 1440 with a 2nd monitor

thanks

The man the myth the legend Mr Logan himself thanks so much I based all my purchases on your reviews!! What case did you review the Maximus formula in I have a corsair obsidian 650d and push pull config fans with my h100i ain't fitting not enough room between case and motherboard and more importantly where you get those long screws from?

Thats because it doesnt support push pull - try watching the reviews Ive done matey.
