Well done. Whats your mobo and cooler mate?
This is what we call it a stable and successful overclock.
Not that previous one which was throttled and underperformed like stock clock. The GFlops is a little off at the first loop could be due to background apps running at the back.
Good job Naraw.

It is normal for low/mid end air cooler. Upgrade to higher end or watercooling for better OC.
Btw, buyer list updated. Welcome to the club.

Putting cache ratio/ uncore equal to core multi will give you a slight improvement of performance but will give impact on stability.
ASUS recommended uncore to stay at x1 to x3 lower than core multi. I myself usually will leave it auto.

any 4770K could do 4.6. Try upping the vCore.
Don't forget to check the temperature via RealTemp. < 100C.

Depends on the chip. My 4770K requires 1.4625v min for 4.6.
so i think your mobo/ bios is the limiting factor here.

Ahh forgot to share some of the boards I have played recently.

ASUS Maximus VI Gene:


Apacer ARES 3000C12 2 X 4GB @ 3333MHz 12-16-15-25-1T


========================================================

ASUS Maximus VI Formula:


Apacer ARES 3000C12 2 X 4GB @ 3333MHz 12-16-15-25-1T

ASUS Z87-PLUS:


Apacer ARES 3000C12 2 X 4GB @ 3000MHz 12-14-14-25-1T

Nice!

Until now I still don't understand what's the correct GFlops for Haswell with the latest LinX 0.6.5.

Last night I got 214GFlops when disabling HT on my 4770K so that its running at 4 cores 4 threads.

But I got 178GFlops when the HT is turned on.

Just to share my OC experience with ASRock Z87M OCF.



The board works flawlessly with 3000MHz mem kit:


Somehow, I couldn't get it stable at 3250MHz and 3333MHz like what I did on the ASUS' MATX Gene. I suspect it could be BIOS issues

I managed to push this MFR SS kit to 3400MHz C12 on air:


It is the only Z87 board that could do 2500MHz C8 with the BBSE kit.


Overall, it is an awesome board for overclocking and gaming.

Very nice. But I'm still hoping that nick would fix the CFR 1T issues that I have reported personally since last July.

nvm, that's for CFR only that they ignore.
Samsung, PSC and BBSE overclocks impressively on OCF.

Nice! Do you have any screenshot of the OC to share with us?

Not bad. Welcome to the club

Use custom blend to that you could stress as max amount of RAM as possible.
You might wanna follow the instruction in the first post of this thread.

Recently, MSI Malaysia was kind to send me this XPower board for review.



Unlike some other boards, I managed to push Hynix-CFR based RAM kit to 3000MHz C12 without a sweat.

G.Skill TridentX 2800C11 2 X 4GB @ 3000MHz 12-14-14-25-2T


More OC results could be obtained from HERE

It's normal as the vCore required increased exponentially, instead of linearly.
You will notice a bigger difference for 4.5 to 4.6. No idea what's the reason though.

yeah delidding is the best way to solve the overheat issue.

Either its good ram and you're not placing it in the channels needed to be filled first. Some mobo's have to have ram in 1 slot before any others are filled. Read the mobo manual.
If its bad ram and RMA it and it should fix the issue.
If you have 1 stick of usable ram, plug it into each of the memory slots and and test it to see if you get the same error.

Forumers are advised to put system specs in the siggy.

Try borrowing RAM from others/ friends. Or take the mobo to PC shop for a check.
Check mobo's CPU socket for bent pins. You might also try resitting the CPU and CPU cooler.
Sometimes over-tightening would cause this issue.

Good then. All the best for your new rig.
