hello this my first time in the forums and i would like some help and advice. Thanks
im new to o.c and i have atempted an oc of my cpu and ram..i would like some advise to no if what i have done is safe or not. im using a crosshair formula IV Mb and used the d.o.p overclock profile to set my ram automaticly.i have o.c from 3.2 to 3.5ghz with a cpu ratio of 13 a bus of 250 and the rest is on auto. my memory is o.c to 2000 mhz witch is the tested oc spec for the memory.I have not touched voltage because i have little experience and i dont want to blow up my computer up or at least not untill i get a good cooler because i only have standard cooling and standard fans that came with my case . the other thing is can anyone tell me what the safe temp is for a 5870 matrix 2 gig?i tryed looking around on google but only found reviews. i want to o.c it as best i can on just stock cooling without touching voltage. so far i have started o.c using ccc overdrive,msi afterburner and msi kombuster. at first i used skyrim to see what the temps were like and thay were hitting up to 80c the core clock is on 950mhz and the memory is on 1300 mhz over drive ses test passed. I tryd using kombuster doing the extream gpu burn test .temps got to 71 c after 5 mins my screen went black and i had to do a hard restart of my computer no artifacts were visible on the screen though.can some one advise me please? i dont want to coninue pushing it if it cant handle it thanks. specs bellow
