2400 turbo speed is 3.4GHz.
Ur mobo will auto adjust the voltage assuming that u're using auto settings so nothing to worry about. It is not considered as an OC though as u're just setting to run at turbo speed.

owikh84, do u think daily use 4.9 GHz ok? Stress temp max 93C around.

Looks fine for me. Daily usage wont hit that stressed 93C coz not 100% cpu is utilized.

Ok, I stick with it then. Thx ya...

aiyo, if wan clock then don't scare, if scare then don't clock high clockspeed like this lo.
in my opinion , i think 4.5 compare to 4.9 not much different in daily using. i set it to 4.5 enough.
and for the voltage . as long as u don put 1.8 + 2.0v like that , no burn mark, intel 1 to 1 exchange to you within 3 years if processor faulty. what u scare?

Added on April 22, 2011, 5:14 pmbtw, may i ask what cooler you using to get 93c at 4.9 ghz ? quite good temp if you ask me. and what program you use to stress?

i using h70 with 2500k 4.5ghz linx already reach 82c, don't even dare to think about 5 ghz sure beyond 100c.

just complete my sandy rig few days back... lot to learn....btw, this my screenshot my current oc...not realy extreme.....

want to run this setting for my folding rig... afraid if i up more,the temp will goes high...



most of the setting is auto because limitation on knowledge on oc...

Overclocking is just for the fun and you are right on that whereby an extra 400Mhz isn't going to make a hell lot of difference for our daily usage. Not to mention the amount of Vcore required is a lot more compared to 4.5Ghz. Nevertheless these are all about interest and I'm happy at 4.9Ghz but nothing more. The moment it goes 5Ghz, I need loads of Vcore to keep the chip happy - something I'm not interested in doing.

Hyper 212+ with dual fans.

Ahh, not so familiar with oc thing ma, summore can say first time own this also.

Added on April 22, 2011, 6:31 pmAll sifu, I passed 20 runs in LinX but why sometimes I'll still BSOD randomly?

This post has been edited by Liuteva: Apr 22 2011, 06:31 PM

aim for 64 bit os 3.2gb to 3.5gb ram 500 pass, 20 passed is nothing, i tried 1xx loop fail 2xx fail 389 loop fail and 477 fail when ram less 0.05v, but after complete 500 runs , rock solid stable

I had the same problem It looks like these tests doesn't necessarily guarantee stability anymore. Try upping the Vcore a notch or two.

I end up stress with Prime95. And the temp much lower abit than using LinX.

Added on April 22, 2011, 7:29 pmYa, from 1.390 to 1.395 now. Hope dont BSOD anymore.

stress with win7 sp1 + new lin pack, if it do pass, no worry of bsod ...

Ahh, I dont have SP1 yet.

Never had BSOD on both MIVE and UD7 B2+B3, both are so stable after LinX+Prime. Game by game finished smoothly on SLI.
AX1200W btw.

Wow, so good la. For mine, stress test no problem, but when normal suft web or idle, will BSOD one zzz.

You can try what lichyetan suggested He's good when it comes to stress testing and overclocking, doesn't break hardwares

walao... dont says so... i break my sli micro with a burnt vtt pwm on my quest to 2k dram 4k uncore on a micron value ram... which i did achieve and board kaput during LinX test...

still got the phobia till today...

I think once in a blue moon is fine, sh!t happens Anyway, how can I get the linpack?

I see. Nearly 2 hours no BSOD since I raised to 1.4 V, not sure later how...

hi there, may i know wat's the highest safe temp for i7 2600k?
