Sorry for the double post but I need you overclock guru's over here
I'm a newb at OC'ing and am currently running at 4.5GHz (which isn't hard with a 2500k at all if even I can manage to run in stable)
But I'd like to try and push on to 5GHz since my cooling will be able to handle it...
So what I was thinking:
Bus speed set to 100, as default
Turbo multiplier set to 50
1.45V (vCore)
But what to do with the DDL Overvoltage and other parameters?
Sigh.
I need a $30 Active MiniDp to DVI thingie.
Cuz my new Asus monitor doesn't have DP.
No, I don't, I picked that up somewhere that two 6870's would perform pretty good.
The sabertooth is a p67 board actually.
I've also glanced at the 570, would that be a better choice?
I plan on getting the computer within the end of the month, but if the 7xxx are due soon, I might be able to wait
Can anyone confirm if it is normal for the clock ratio to jump to 38x when using 1600Mhz or faster memory? My Z68 board started doing this after a BIOS update.
