hermmm tune down ur ram divider...

i have no ram divider, all i got is getting to choose 800mhz 1066mhz 1333mhz to start with.

set it to 1066.
wish i got the time to play wif my oc

u and m both bro...just got new toy p55 UD6... wanna know is it better OCer than my last GD65....

wanna test 4ghz on i7 860....

ntg to do last night,so i overclocked my ram to DDR1600~


http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1104686

Is there anyone here can get BCLK 230-233 on Core i3 530, what is the Vcore & VTT?

u need a really good mobo and a really good proc to do that.

and the vtt and vcore would cause so much heat that u need a really good cooling solution to keep it stable.

It seems I can't go more than 1.5 VTT... Can't boot, I just can do 4.05GHz 225x18 at 1.45 vtt & 1.4 vcore. Prime blend stable. Trying to lower em voltages. Any recommendation on good mobo that can pull off that 250 bclk trick? And what is the suggested QPI when running 225 bclk? I just pick the lowest currently.

about the qpi,i ran it as close to the stock ones as i could but dont really have a suggestion for a mobo that can do 250 daily though

bros sekalian

wanna ask.. how was the performance by oc-ing i5750 or i7 860/870 by using m-atx board .. for example Gigabyte H55M ? thats just example..

because i've read before. the m-atx is built for i3 eventho their socket are same with i7860 and i5.. i ask this question since wanna save budget lolz.. anyone wants to share experience ? hehe

The H55 works fine and if you google, many people easily clock their i3 to 4Ghz+ with those board

My Asus P55 mATX works like charm too. Running i3 @ 4.4GHz.

what i mean is using m-atx for oc-ing i5 750 or i7860... which by any means any quadcore socket 1156.. hehehehe not i3.

Why not? matx can clock as good as atx.
The size of the mobo is not an issue.

many reviews out there showed that H55's are pretty decent for the price. they still can oc to 4ghz just fine. so why not.
from tomshardware : http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/h55-h5...board,2555.html
9 boards with a mixture of atx, matx and mini itx. (unfortunately they only compared H55 & H57 boards)

bro. referred tp ur url, they r all oc-ing the m-atx board with 2-core processors [i3 and i5 which are using 2 cores]

actually im expecting to see they're using m-atx board with i5 750 . or i7 860. both them are quad core . thanks bro. im not expecting spoonfeed here. i already tried googling around. and since i cannot find wat i expected, so i ask here.

Actually I don't quite understand because most modern boards can easily get you a decent overclock What are your expectations like? If you're looking to max out everything, overclock that i5 750 or i7 860 to 5Ghz, etc then maybe you want to spend on a better board. If you're just an average overclocker that wants your chip to run faster for day to day use, I really don't see a problem with the H55.

bro, kindly click the url above. u'll know wat i mean. IN THE EXAMPLE ABOVE, THE WEBSITE REVIEWED THE OVERCLOCKING USING MATX BOARD FOR ONLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY DUALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL COREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I WANT TO SEE THE REVIEW OF USING MATX BOARD THAT OC-ING QUADDDDDDDDDDD COREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE LIKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I5 750............. AND I7 860 SINCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THEY WEREEEEEEEEEEEE USING THE SAMEEEEEEE SOCKET. :

edit: im not a very good overclocker like you

Understand ur concern yeepi. But by logic, there shouldn't be any issues.
If the board is gud, then it doesnt matter if it's single/dual or quad core. That shud be a cpu problem or limitation alrdy.
But dun take my words, i'm just saying based on my experience & readings. And it just happens that most H55/H57 boards were reviewed with dual core i3/i5 only.
hehe.
* i'm using H55M + i5 750 too .. ..haven't OC kaw kaw. just using a cheap value rams + hyper212+ cooler only right now. I think can reach 3.8GHz.

Please don't use so many repeat and caps words. It is very impolite. (I apologized if you suffering Parkinson's disease )

BUY ASUS Maximus III Gene!! Guaranteed 1000% satisfy.

If you cannot afford, just choose the cheapest m-ATX 5 series chipset as your mobo, low budget deserve low OC gain.

Share your review here since nobody at the well known tech site is going to use budget m-ATX mobo to OC such a good processor.
