i know maybe this topic will b little bit out, but still it is technical support rite?

my spec
i7 4770k
msi z87-g41
xigmatek tauro 700w
CM seidon 120v

the rig keep crashing if i overclock it more than 4.2ghz
can someone teach me the correct method to overclock with this cheap mobo?
have someone tried overclock with this specs?
want to push up to 4.5ghz if possible.

is there 3rd party software that can be used in windows?

whats ur ram model/spec?

this mobo supports OC Genie... y not use it and oc from there..?

Crash because of ram speed maybe?

baca post dlam nie

using kingston hyper x blu 1600mhz single 8gb

anyway the oc genie seems to tune my cpu only to fixed 4ghz
myb i am new to overclocking, myb there is somehow i can modify the speed through oc genie?

too long, cant focus which part should i read though

1st start with using stock volt... find max multiplier you can get like 44 mybe

then pump little bit jus volt .. check.. it can runing smooth . @ fail... if fail pump more volt.

ingore about ram 1st .. focus on cpu 1st...

currently running at 4.4ghz on 1.299v voltage

Open RealTemp
Execute Task Manager > Performance tab
Launch Prime95
Choose custom, min FFT 128k, mem to use (see task manager for available mem)
Start stressing
Monitor the max temp make sure it doesn't exceed 100C (TJmax) - speed will go down (throttled) if TJmax is hit to protect the CPU from overheating
Stress it for 3 hours +
Don't stop priming & open CPU-Z
Take screenshot including Prime95 + CPU-Z + Task Manager + RealTemp

tgk system stabil or not

my mobo seems to limit the voltage only to 1.300v
how can i increase that in uefi?

do u have the steps? i wan learn too

just jump to bios
click on OC tab
adjust the multiplier to 43
ring ratio 35
then adjust the VCCIN to 1.9v
cpu voltage to 1.25v
make it adaptive
DRAM to 1.65v (not sure this is neccessary)

that was my setup on msi-z87 g41 with seidon 120v

what u did this oc the mobo rite?

no, not the mobo. ive being oc the proc and the ram thru mobo bios

isit complicated?

nooooo, simple like abc cendawan goreng je
do u have the same setup?

my mobo is z77-g43 xD

hmm different mobo chipset g43 and socket too. not sure bout it. basic overclocking should b the same. other features is the extra

Ya mine is a micro atx mobo
