    3750k, sabertooth z77 overclock

    Been a long time since I messed with overclocking..

    Right now with my 3750k

    @ 44x

    can't get windows loaded without vcore @ 1.4v

    I'm running temps 55-65ºc Prime95.



    I feel like the voltage is a bit high....

    Is that temperature reading with the stock clocks and vCore? Because I seriously doubt you are getting 65°C under P95 load at 1.40V.

    Mmmm I'd have to look into ivy myself i know I dislike pushing 1.4 through sandy.

    H100 could very well reasonably do it. Factoring im using a sandy bridge w/ a Corsair A70 only seen 74c @ maximum w/ 1.408Vcore for 4.8ghz , it is viable @ 44x and 1.4Vcore that with a much better cooler his average is 65c~

    With a 2500K yes, but not with Ivy Bridge. Temps start to skyrocket at 1.35V

    Your OC isnt stable because your Bus is at 103mhz, Ivy bridge really hate bus OC, just keep at 100mhz and it should be much more stable plus ull probably be able to increase the multiplier and/or decrease voltage. That said .. if you can take a screenshot of your bios id really like to see it.

    yeah, what parts do you want to see?



    Bus down to 100mhz

    still 44x
    1.22 vcore
    45-55ºc with prime

    I guess that means I can play higher?

    Hope its ok to link to other sites - seriously one of the best guides I've read for ivy overclocking.

    Mind posting a screenshot of some of your settings? Get the feeling your missing something or misreading.

    1.22 vcore and your not throttling? ya push it higher - really do suggest following that guide though!

    My Z77 sabertooth has ran my 2700k stable the past 5 months @ 5.0Ghz /1.35vcore with a H-100.

    everything followed from http://www.overclock.net/t/1291703/i...erboards/0_100
    pretty much was the same as his guide


    i'm just gonna run false on my behalf.. was using AIsuite.. it obviously doesn't show correct temps.... 10-20º off

    ah gotcha, that will do it! just keep pumping it up - currently running a 4.7 OC @ 88c - Personally dont like it hitting 90 but its still in the safe zone per intel
