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.

When i go to my computer icon, right click and select properties, i see my computer system properties. Processor speed it states 2. One 3.3GHz, the other 5.8GHz. Why is this so? Is this common to all i2500K that overclock? I did install core temp to monitor CPU usage and temperature. When running Unigene, I notice the clock ranges from 1566 MHz to 4498MHz (I set OC to 4.5GHz), and sometimes even hit 5800MHz (though for a short few seconds). CPU highest temp recorded was 51°C. Is this normal?

Hello bro ,

haha
for someone who generates money it'd be no problem man .
for a student like me, its a pain in the neck .
most probably won't migrate anymore for the next 1 year at least .
too much money spent on hardwares .
most probably i'll get 2nd gtx560 and do surround .
dat's d most
anyway, i'll still play with my fren's SB .
thanks for the proc owikh . will test them out tomorrow hopefully
