GA-X58A-UD3R (rev. 2.0) + i7-950 Overclock
« on: March 23, 2011, 11:03:54 pm »
Hello,

Seemingly, I can't get my rig over 24x multiplier, 145 base clock.  150 blue screens.  I'm on Extreme Overclocking and tried multiple voltage settings to no avail.  Does anyone have any experience and can help me or am I just out of luck going past that?  Everyone keeps saying i7-950 should hit 4ghz no problem, I've certainly got the cpu cooler to do it.  What settings do I need to change/take control of?
