Your Haswell Z87 Overclock Results?
« on: May 06, 2014, 11:02:55 am »
Hi Folks.

Just thought I would ask how successful people have been with the Haswell Overclocking.

So far, I've issues getting past 4.3 stable so I'm wondering if anyone with a Gigabyte board has had some luck, and what settings seemed to help with the above 4.3 OC. My current settings are:

Multiplier 43 (Uncore 36)
CPU Core 1.3v
VRING 1.05v
VCCIN 2.0v
LLC Extreme
C states On

Temps are fine. On the above with a Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 3 I'm on 77c XTU and 81c AIDA64 load. I just can't seem to find the magic combination for anything above 4.3.

Cheers

sometimes your chip hits a limit. I have been as high as 4.8 but even though it ran it didn't seem as fast as 4.4.  So I would say my sweet spot was 4.4 sometimes higher clock doesn't mean faster.
