Sifu, Gonna get the following rig and start to OC by myself through the guides available online. Do I need to add anything to my build as I am going to place order preferably tonight.
i7 7700k Asus Strix Z270G Thermaltake Riing 3.0 240 Liquid Cooling GTX1080 MSI Armor PSU 650W G 80 Full Modular M.2 SSD WD Blue 500GB 1TB WD Blue HDD 8GB RAM X 2 (Either Trident 3200 or 2600 normal one)
I supposed I have some few hundreds to spare is there any need to further improve it?

QUOTE(owikh84 @ May 24 2017, 07:17 AM) That note that the Strix Z270G board doesn't offer a Debug LED that's supposed to be useful for troubleshooting error in the event of OC failure. Other than that should be fine.  Changing it to Z270E. Thanks anyway. This post has been edited by starz92: May 24 2017, 09:28 AM

Guys, I am facing frequent BSOD in window 10 whenever I am trying to use the default preset at my MOBO to OC my rig a little. Most problem start when I launch a game. My rig as below : i7-7700k Asus Z270E Thermaltake Water Cooling 3.0 240L G.Skill Trident 3200 8GB X 2
I have very minimal OC knowledge so I choose to just use the preset at my MOBO. I tried the XMP Profile to enable my 3200Mhz RAM but I encounter BSOD during gaming. I also tried the 5gb OC preset and also encounter BSOD. Resetting to default setting seems to solve the problem.

QUOTE(owikh84 @ Jun 3 2017, 09:48 AM) Hi bro, By the way, what "default preset" did you use? What are your core/cache/RAM frequencies and core/RAM/VCCSA (System Agent)/VCCIO voltages? Getting BSOD with XMP @ 3200MHz is sometimes related to insufficient voltage issue. Try give the VCCSA and VCCIO a bump like 1.25-1.35v and 1.175-1.25v. It's chip dependent, every CPU has different strength of Integrated Memory Controller (IMC). Weak CPU IMC will require higher values to achieve stability and vice versa.  As for "5.0GHz OC preset", how much is your core voltage (vCore)? It could be insufficient voltage, try increasing the CPU Core Voltage a bit. Again, it's also chip dependent. Every chip was born unique, hence they have different VID (stock voltage at default clocks). So to find the best voltage for 5.0GHz OC you will have to go with trial and error. Hey bro, tq for the reply. The XMP Profile I just click the XMP Profile 1 (the only choice available at my Bios). Not sure of the setting but will look into it when I am home. I realised that I am only able to choose either XMP or "5.0GHz OC preset" ? Will the 5.0GHz OC enable my RAM to run at 3200 Mhz?

QUOTE(owikh84 @ Jun 3 2017, 10:23 AM) You can choose to select either one or both of them together. Afaik, loading the 5.0 OC preset will not automatically activate the XMP profile, and vice versa. To use both, you will need to firstly select XMP profile and then load the 5.0GHz OC preset. will selecting 5.0Ghz OC preset after XMP profile reset the XMP Profile or both can work together?

QUOTE(owikh84 @ Jun 3 2017, 02:13 PM) As mentioned earlier, both can work together. But must in XMP and then 5.0GHz order. The 5.0GHz OC Preset will not overwrite RAM-related settings but only the CPU-related settings. You can try it in UEFI BIOS. Just now tried xmp then 5.0Ghz preset together with the voltage setting as shown in your screenshot but unable to in to window. Now I just used xmp with your voltage setting and can work smoothly already. Ltr will try on the 5.0Ghz preset again
