Hi,
Recently I have upgraded my MSI P55M-GD45 to a Asus P7P55D-E Deluxe which I will be installing tomorrow when my new case arrives (Cooler Master HAF X).
Now I am wondering if anybody has a guideline as to overclocking with this combo. Also does anybody know if I will run into driver issues after switching the motherboards?
They have the same chipset but I have never switched out a motherboard without reinstalling and I would like to not have to do that.
On my MSI board I have it overclocked like this at the moment (after much trouble):
Frequency 21x180 MHz (3,80GHz)
VTT Voltage 1.303
DRAM Voltage 1.651
Core Voltage +0.272
Don't ask me why but the MSI board doesn't show actual core voltage. I have however found out it's 1.4 volt. Recently I read about somebody overclocking to 4,0 GHz with only 1.3 volt so I was wondering how I can achieve this as well. I use the Scythe Mugen Rev. B cooler by the way
Also does anybody know about overclocking the RAM? The MSI board automatically raised it from 1333 MHz to 1448 MHz while retaining 9-9-9-24 timings. I was wondering how far I can push those settings, I'm not familiar with RAM overclocking in any way.
Thanks in advance.
