Core i7/X58 Overclocking Thread

[Hornet331]

Thanks,

Well to tell you the truth. I found out if you feed it with 13 to 16x then my system will boot with low voltage and it is more stable. I know it is strange. The memory has to be 6x and Uncore 13 to 16x. If the memory is x8 then the Uncore should be 17 to 20x.

I hope this info will help you guys out on the quest of getting a very good lower voltage with higher clocks.

Interesting info thx.

Seems the part that gets unstable very fast is the uncore part. I think the large and "slow" 3rd level cache has its price.

To bad you need a high clocked L3 cache to rock SPI.
