first OC
 
just read Overclocking guides on the internet a few of them can be found here on OCN and be sure to watch your load tempratures and if you have a intel cpu you dont want to go above 1.40v on cpu voltage

for 24/7 useage
 
Thanks

I have my 2500k on 4.3ghz and it appears to run at about 1.38v on the cpuz when it is on auto overclock

Will probably just leave it to the summer when I might have a go at doing it manually.

You should at that voltage be able to get 4.6ghz or if you have a good chip you should get 4.8ghz using 1.38v, my old 2500K would do 4.6ghz on 1.375v and 4.8ghz on 1.395v.
 
Gratz man !!

Working on my first OC also. Currently running Prime95 on 3.8 for my 950. Will try for 4 but waiting on temps and such atm.

The cooling will be one of the important factors on the X58 setup as will the board.

My old I7 950 would do 4.5ghz stable but the temp's were far to high for my liking, as they were hitting the high 80's with a 360mm rad dropped it down to 4.2ghz and they stayed within the low 70's.

Cannot remember exactly the setting's I used on the Rampage II Extreme but I think it was something like:

BLCK: 200

Multi: 21

Vcore: 1.375v

QPI: 1.35v

Mine is stable at 3.8 for 24/7 ... 190x20 ... 1.2Vcore When I tried 200x20 it booted fine then crashed when I ran anything.
 
Nice overclock man, congratulation. The first gen Sandy's are quite underrated now days.

You got the same clockspeed as I do on my 750 =)
