yeap with this new sandy bridge,it'll be easier since u can only play around with the multiplier instead of the base clock .

basically, all u have to do is raise the multiplier until the desired speed .
about the voltage, im not sure, can ask other sifu here .

i have no idea with the new bios...im using the asus board...the whole bios is different now lol...oh..? so my psu is okay for this spec?

cause alot of my friend told me to get 750w cause 550w true power is not enuf lol..

Yo, BCLK 108.01 :b1:



Still far from 109

damn..how to oc? LOl...

thanks stasio, the last 2 bioses didn't allow me to adjust BCLK.
Hope this one permit it.

@ kahjye
this bios is for M4E board only and u cannot simply flash the wrong bios.

anyne?

oc`ing just need to adjust the multiplier ?

Start by multi adjistment, increase vcore if couldnt boot or Bsod.

Hello sir do u know how high can i go with stock vcore?

Get a higher capacity PSU. You can try oc with current until pc auto shut down.

No one will know how high its can go until you have try it out yourself. It's chip dependence.

Just like eating a mango, you dun know whether it is sour or sweet until you taste it.

I have tried to overclock my i5-2500K using Asus P8P67. I set the Vcore in the bios to auto and offset + mode. I set the BcLK = 100MHz, multiplier = 45x.

So during idle, I'm getting around vcore 0.9v. Running Prime95, I'm getting around 1.34v.
I tried to lower the vcore in the asus AI suite to 1.15v. Using this setting, i was getting Vcore reading from CPU-z and asus probe to be 1.25V. Idle = 0.87v.

If i were to set Vcore in the bios to 1.25V, the Vcore reading with CPU-z and asus probe will be always 1.24v during idle and load.

Just wanted to check with you guys, are you seeing the same thing. Meaning if you set manually the vcore, the vcore will just stay the same regardless of idle or load?

Thanks.

gosh...this is too complex compared to the previous blue~ish bios screen lol...

normally when loaded the vcore drop (vdroop)
why it increase?
with LLC it will stay "nearly" the same

Recently Intel has just updated their Intel ME FirmWare from version 1141 to 1164. Therefore, MSI came out with a new BIOS package for its Sandy Bridge Platform linking both BIOS and Intel ME FireWare update. This however needed to be done through DOS Flashing. The easier method through MSI M-Flash function could only update the BIOS while not the Intel ME FirmWare. If updating system BIOS without updating the Intel ME FirmWare, it may cause the system become unstable.

Now MSI linked both ME toll + ME FirmWare with BIOS AMI Tool into a .bat file in their Mainpage BIOS Download. Included is the Flashing SOP/Guide for the whole process of updating BIOS and Intel ME FirmWare.

List of Mainboards with Intel ME FirmWare Update Included in BIOS Download Page:
1. MSI P67A-GD65
2. MSI P67A-GD55
3. MSI P67A-GD53
4. MSI P67A-C45
5. MSI P67A-C43
6. MSI P67S-C43

PS: For MSI Mainboard Users, but i guess any other Manufacturer will release this update as well. Users will be able to play with MSI Control Panel II flawlessly if the Intel ME FirmWare is updated correctly.
