Please help me to overclock my CPU, again

That could be a promising sign if the BIOS you did have has been removed likely it was causing issues

OK I updated the bios to the latest one. Bios was completely reset and the first bios changes I immidiatly did were:

Xmp on
X45 on 1.4v
Enable fast boot
Fast boot time delay 0 sec
Disabled csm
Disabled legacy USB support
Changed qcode to auto
Asmedia 3.1 fast charge support enabled
Hdd smart self test off
Vt-d enabled
Power on by pcie enabled

So nothing really special related to oc I'm not sure if vt-d is somehow related.

Testing now results follow soon

Let us know how it turns out. Seems it must be working

 

[Deleted member 117404]

youre right, first test passed 1:17h, will try a second longer test tonight

 

[Johan45]

Good news, I was hoping it would be that simple.
Vt-d is for virtualization so it shouldn't effect anything on or off in your case.

 

[Deleted member 117404]

still looks promising

[Deleted member 117404]

going for x46 now is a good ideau right?

 

[Johan45]

Yeah why not

 

[Deleted member 117404]

Yeah why not

Much better results now, look at the new notes, will do the 8h test tonight when im going to bed.

Looks good Defcon, don't know if you have ever tried XTU from intel but I would give the benchmark a shot with your current settings. It's a tough workout and may cause a bit more heat or it might even fail. It uses a form of P95

What would you suggest x46 on 1.4 or x47 on 1.42 maybe 1.43

 

[Johan45]

See my edit to the last post for the link. I would run XTU now at 4.6 pretty sure it'll fail but maybe not. Just use the benchmark it's the same as the stability test but shorter and you get a score

i cannot install the xtu program, i think cause its not officialy supported on windows 10 yet. any new advice for me? ty

Weird according to the page it's compatible with Win10 and I've used it on Win10. That just seems odd. Did you try running as admin? https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24075/Intel-Extreme-Tuning-Utility-Intel-XTU-

mmm, i did a reboot, and setup popped up immidiatly after reboot, and i was able to install it, i can either select memory or cpu from stress testing menu, how long should i stress test, now testing 1 hours still stable.

 

[Johan45]

Just run the benchmark and see if it passes and watch the temps. XTU will display thr temp and tell you if there's ny throttling

 

[Deleted member 117404]

seems ok i think

 

[Johan45]

You can give x47 a try now. I'd start with 1.41 if that fails add .01v and test again. XTU is good as a quick test. If it'll pass that benchmark it'll more than likely pas a few hours of Aida. XTU hit the AVX2 instructions a bit harder so can cause more heat and require a touch more voltage IMO

looks promising with 1.41, should i go for aida long test now 6 h? or go to x48 1.42, and are we really shure that intel is a good test, i have my doubts too be honost, ha but you proberly know better

 

[Johan45]

I know that some who pass Aida can't run this benchmark so whatever you take from that. As I said XTU uses Prime95 in it's test which is quite tough. One stability test is never the be all end all and it's a good idea to try more than one, realbench from ASUS is a good one too. I think you know what you're doing, play with it and see what you come up with. Just keep an eye on your temps and I wouldn't go too far past 1.42v for 24/7 use.
