Foxconn Quantum Force Black Ops X48 OC Guide (56k Warning)

[ceevee]

EIST has to be set to Native if you are running an unlocked multiplier. Thats why its set that way in the guide. You should beable to use CrystalCPUID to change the multiplier in windows and it should stay locked there.

Hi, I had tried it that way before when first setting up, but I did not realize that EIST must be turned on for it to overclock at all. I thought this was merely "recommended" setting.

---edit---

Starting to make some progress in spite of the bugs.

Got 8GB DDR3 @ 1345Mhz 8-9-9-24 1T, qx9770 @ 3.785Ghz @ 1.30v



I am feeling confident that if the BIOS will let me go to 2T and CAS9 that I can get all 8GB to 1600Mhz.

Also Cpt. Planet do you know how hot is too hot for the QX9770. At 3.8Ghz I am getting 65C under full Prime95 load in Coretemp. Is 65C too hot for max load (I belive it is the Tjunction reading)? (this is on air atm btw)
