Think I'm doing this all wrong !!!
Okay, I wanna isolate my Max BCLK.
In order to do that I have done the following:
CPU Ratio: x12 (lowest)
SpeedStep: Disabled
PCIE Freq.: 100 (lowest)
DRAM Freq.: Changes when I change BCLK, but I have always chosen the lowest setting.
UCLK: Also lowest setting
QPI Link Data Rate: Lowest setting
DRAM Timings: Auto
VCore: Auto
CPU PLL: Auto
QPI/DRAM Core Voltage:
1.37500V
CPU and PCIE Spread Spectrum: Disabled
C1E Support: Disabled
Virtualization Tech: Disabled
CPU TM Function: Enabled
HT Tech: Enabled
C-State Tech: Disabled
BCLK 216 managed to run 2 hours worth of small FFTs (Prime95) before
I ended the test. No issues in Windows or with Prime95.
But later, after a reboot, when I entered BIOS in order to try out BCLK 217 my PC froze before I modified any settings...
So I don't think 216 is stable after all.
I have now begun testing BCLK 216 using a QPI/DRAM Core Voltage of
1.4V
I'm sure I'm doing this the wrong way around - It just seemed like a good idea to start high with QPI/DRAM Core Voltage in order to see how high I could go with BCLK.
Did I put it dangerously high and therefore manage to F### everything up??
[EDIT]
CPU: x5690
MB: ASUS P6T Deluxe v1
If possible, I would like to end up at
4.6GHz - Not sure it will be possible without exceeding 1.4 VCore
