**[Official]]** ASRock z87 OC Formula + (M) Thread

[nickshih]

Some basic info for Z87 oc formula & Z87M oc formula here

1.bclk oc : if u want to do run-time bclk overclocking in XP or win7&8 , u "must" install Intel ME driver .

without this driver , it is impossible to change bclk in OS level. here is the download link

2.cpu ratio : ME driver is not required , if u want a clean os without any driver , you still can do cpu ratio overclocking.


3.rapid OC software . This is tiny rapid oc software by Asrock . It can be operated by button on Z87 OCF , also hot key by keyboard.

For me chipset driver from Intel make Rapid OC even with BCLK working with hotkeys... dont know if the ME driver is included.

And guys take care - CPUz validator seems to have some problems at the moment:


Even my 24/7 rig shows the ? instead of CPU Tab!
1.64 and 1.65 is the same failure...

We couldn't get the bclock working on a very slim Windows XP SP3. We had to install the ME driver (9.0.10 was okay for us), maybe the .net Framework 3.5 was important too (not sure), but really important was to install the "Formula Drive" software. Otherwise the Rapid OC tool always added +1 MHz to the bclock, without any real changes of the clock. Well, with the "Formula Drive" and a reboot, it was working afterwards. Don't worry if you can't start this software, you can even uninstall it after the reboot. Rapid OC will still work.

Also important are the services: You will need the Intel Clock service and the DCOM process service, they are necessary for bclock too.

If the me driver be installed , thr interval of bclk oc will be like 0.1 each step .
