Just thought id post some settings for an easy 4.5ghz overclock for anyone that needs a rough guide













seems i missed a page off showing what llc level i used,i used high llc below

Wazza,
Do you know of any excellent Asus Z68 overclocking how-to tutorials or threads?
Providing links would be a great help many of the 20 current thread viewers.

I dont know any good guides,i just googled around and read what others were using in forums ect,the hardest part is working out how much all the different llc settings use to apply voltage

but generally around 1.36v is the sweet spot for 4.5ghz-4.8ghz depending on your cpu,qpi/vtt or vtt or vccio (for integrated memory controller) can be anything upto 1.2v

dram voltage can be no higher than 1.5750v on sb

and core temps no higher than 72c(opinions on this may differ,some use upto 80c) but i like to be on the safe side and limit to 72c,4.5ghz is the highest i can go using this cooler,when i do finally buy a better cooler ill push further

Are this template ok for the same MB with an i7 2700K. I have the same MB as you pos ((( PZ68-V Pro/Gen 3))) with this CPU and I,m looking to oc for the first time my SB micr and no till no experience with them.

[wazza300]

yes should be fine,if unstable just raise cpu voltage offset slightly,you wont need above 1.36-1.38v imo for 4.5ghz,might need slight bump in vccio but not much and dont go above 1.2v for vccio and no more than 1.5750v for dram

BTW. I cant see the Load Line Calibration on your pics.. I have my bios set by default at the moment.Is in auto or turbo and it reach 4 ghz under load. My RAM is a 1.6v Gskill. and the bios read DRAM=1.615 v. Vccio= 1.062 and CPU V= 1.803. This values are default, I dinnt touch nothing.

[wazza300]

im using llc level high

are you using xmp profile for ram? 1600mhz ram?


CPU V= 1.803 ??????? are you sure?

[ea3ot]

No Wozza. As I say all is default on the MB, Is a new PC ( 3 days old)

[wazza300]

you cant be using 1.8v for cpu it would melt

dram you can set to 1.5750v and vccio can leave as it is,check cpu voltage all you have to change with cpu voltage is set offset to + then 0.005v

[ea3ot]

The values I have are:

CPU Voltage: 1.112 v
DRAm: 1.615 to 1.6215 v
VCCIO: 1.059 to 1.062 v
CPU PLL: 1.803 V

All are by default
