Hi Guys,
I`ve popped in and out of various threads whilst searching for OC answers and finally decided to join and get stuck in properly
I built a `Gaming` rig for myself finally about 6 months ago cos I was tired of my former PC`s never being able to run `pretty` graphics on my games...in fact some games were just too new and radical that former PC`s simply spat the Disc out and rolled about laughing......
ENOUGH was ENOUGH!!!
I`ve been gaming since `Jet set Willy` on the Sinclair Spectrum 48k and I deserve to play good games DAMMIT!!!!!
Anyway, I thought I`d buy the individual parts and build the best my pocket could justify ;-)
I`ve since `mucked about` with the Bios settings and `fiddled` with my OC station and I have gained some understanding of over clocking..
I have to admit that I still have not really got past multipliers and Base clocks and most of the settings are still on Auto but my rig is running around 4Ghz and seems stable though I have not stress tested yet.
I`m downloading a torrent and typing this at the same time and the temp is 39 centigrade....even in the heat of battle on Call of Duty at full graphics the rig has never overheated...
I hope to learn more from you guys and finally get to grips with my rig fully
In case you are wondering: my cpu multiplier is currently at 21... my base clock is 200.. my DDR3 is 1603mhz.. hyperthreading is on.. the cpu is at 4.214Ghz.
Temperature is 38 degrees for cpu as I said earlier and motherboard is 28 degrees ...
I am a `noob` for all intents and purposes and I`m sure at least one person will yell at me in CAPITALS to stress test (lol) but everyone gotta start somewhere ;-)
So, I really look forward to y`all edumacating me in the black art of Bios tweeking and I am glad to link up with like minded people.....
Anyone else remember `jet set willy???` lol
