X99 BCLK/CPU Strap Question

Hi,

In the Rampage V (or generally the X99 platform) I am trying for a 4.4-4.6 OC.
I've got some G Skill Ripjawz 4 2666Mhz @ 15-15-15-35. And when I enable XMP it ups the CPU Strap/BCLK to 125.

Is this a MUST to achieve higher ram frequencies or can I set this to 100Mhz?
I've not really messed with BCLK before so this is sorta new to me.

Any advice welcomed please!

Thanks
 
With X99 systems, the ballpark has changed, and you need to mess with the BCLK to achieve better overclocks (see Ramapge V video, Tom briefly touches on this)
 
Hi,

Yer I watched TTL's video.
But was not sure if there was more than one way to do it.

Thanks for the clarification
