I5 3570k and im using asrock z68. 4.5GHz @ 1.3V +- 0.05V is possible to pass at least 2 hours or more of Prime95. Don't take it as a 100% guarantee as different chips in different batches will demand different amount of volts to be stable. 4.5Ghz is a good range as the volts needed for 4.6GHz or more is going to be a lot, temps increase a lot as well.

Pretty high isit. So scared. ok. Will try ur setup after dis. Hehe P/s: me just using h50 push pull 91C is too high, or at least too high by my standards. 1.3V should be a sweet spot, anything less you'll risk some stability. H50 isn't enough. You should get something like a H100 or air coolers like the Noctua NH-D14 or similar.

Anyway my rads are still cool to touch. No hot air at all But since I bought this 3570K dirt cheap so i don't mind to push it further. btw my chip couldn't boot 5GHz with even 1.65v. Best is 4.9GHz with 1.6v bootable but unstable with random exe crashes & BSOD. For you guys who don't own IB yet, the best thing to do now is to wait for a revised stepping. Let's hope Intel has good news for us later. I've seen better overclocking from Core i7 3770K's, better as in requiring less voltage than comparable Core i5 3570Ks maybe due to better binning. Try getting a Core i7 3770K and see if you can get better results. QUOTE(kelvin_hata @ Apr 28 2012, 04:50 PM) Yea... But need to run at high vcore... And dunno y so hot report at hwinfo or core temp, i use my hand to touch the waterblock feel cold nia... Haiz... Many said that temp is not necessarily heat. IB may have higher temps but it actually makes less heat than SB. Strange and maybe confusing to some but I find it correct.

Temps might improve but overclocking is still limited by voltage. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « QUOTE(ALeUNe @ May 11 2012, 10:08 PM) I'm gonna get an i5-3570K for my HTPC. I need to get mATX. I'll only get the budget Z77 board, meaning in the range of MYR310-350. With that, I have only 2 options, either Asus A8Z77M or Gigabyte Z77M-D3H. Which is a better board in terms of overclocking? Neither, mATX isn't suitable for overclocking unless you're paying for a ROG board. But if you're going for a mild OC, I'll choose the Asus. QUOTE(whatsayyou @ May 11 2012, 10:39 PM) can i know some settings for a mild <4.5ghz oc? I want to keep speedstep and the other four power saving features (C1E, C3/C6 state, thermal monitor, CPU EIST) what abt the Turbo for the 4 cores and offset voltages? i'm kinda lost, coming from Athlon x2. haha. This is my upgrade after 5 years. I don't think anyone can give specific directions on what your settings should be because there are variations from one CPU to another but something mild like 4.2GHz should not need more than 1.2V, stay closer to <1.15V if it is a Core i7 3770K. Assuming that your aim is 4.2GHz, the best possible way is to start from 1.2V and work your way down till it is unstable while running stability programs. Recommended to run Prime95, LinX, IBT and OCCT for at least several hours. Not a problem, keep the power saving features on as it will reduce the clockspeed according to your load. QUOTE(JunJoe @ May 12 2012, 12:28 AM) what is the different from sandy bridge? Intel core i3 2120 liteon/lg sata 22x Gigabyte Powerock 500W Gigabyte B75M-D3V 4gb value ram x 2 Wd caviar blue 1tb Cooler master casing 311 plus PALIT GeForce® GTX 560 Sonic Platinum this is my pc spec.can it run ivy bridge? im not planning to oc. It could but I don't see the need to upgrade if you're not going for a 4 core IB. The performance difference is very little and I'd only recommend getting it if you have interest in the better performing IGP.

I owned wide range of motherboards, from premium to budget mobo. I never had problem to overclock with mATX. I just wonder how is the "overclockability" for current Z77 mobo, particularly Asus and Gigabyte. I heard Asus has slow boot up (it takes a long time to detect hardware at bios boot up). So Asus users, do you encounter slow boot up with your Z77 mobo? Not to say that mATX isn't overclockable. It can but usually not as good as a full sized ATX with space for more components for power delivery. As for overclockability, I have to guess that it will be a little bit worse than the previous because manufacturers skimp a little on fewer power delivery components as IB is not as demanding as SB, but this is outside of the range that most would be able to go. You'll probably hit a wall with the IB processor before you are held back by the Z77 motherboard. Asus doesn't have slower boot times, it is just that it has more parts to check before it completes its POST. If you disable some of the features, it will POST just as fast as the other boards and these features will eventually be loaded when the OS is running.

I dun really need al the latest feature ( i dun even understand some of them yet) but i want it future proof at least... Edit: I'm thinking of using 3570k with GTX670. Almost any Z77 board RM400 onwards will get you to 4.5GHz provided that you have a decent heatsink. If on a budget, the ASRock Z77 Extreme4 has almost all the features that you'll need. Every other board after it will give more features and also more expensive.

nyoron~ Senior Member 3,333 posts Joined: Dec 2009	QUOTE(asm@m @ May 12 2012, 07:15 PM) Yeah. ASRock is cheaper. But people said ASUS is more reliable? or just rumours? Not quite as I do have an ASRock board that goes back to the days of P4 and still running good. As for now, ASRock can be as good or nearly as good as Asus, Gigabyte and MSI. ASRock now can't be grouped in the same category as ECS or Biostar, which does make decent motherboards but still needs a little improvement. QUOTE(ketapang @ May 12 2012, 08:09 PM) 3570k @ 4.2Ghz. Using MSI Z77A-G43 & its not really a good mobo for overclock. Very little control on vcore. Highest vcore i could get is 1.26v but due to vdroop, i cant even make mine stable @ 4.5Ghz. No LLC option, PLL voltage only avail to enable & disable it. If there is an updated BIOS, it might improve some of the options available.
