2000 and polishing compound

A polishing compound, umm isn't that like a wax of a sort. Kudos to your fine job but personally it have left out the compound... I do polish wheels and tanks from time to time and sure it makes it shine but it also leaves a film on the surface to help protect it from the elements.

Abrasives, lubricants and solvents. They just make much much smaller cuts.

Not going for 5ghz stress testing on air, I like this chip too much, LOL!
But here is 4.9ghz@1.28v for you, 74c max - not bad at all!

Dude I have a 5.1Ghz chip but it need way more voltage then yours.. Try a max cpu voltage of 1.32 @ 5ghz and I betcha your golden!

1.32 will not hurt that chip.. @cadaveca he'll second that :cool:

johnspack · Aug 14, 2015

wow... wonder if I got my friend a gold devil's.... still have him at stock until our heatwave is over... 100-120f temps is no good for ocing.

Maybe later on at night after this 90+ deg heat wave passes or another night when the air conditioning is on

johnspack · Aug 14, 2015

What's the max safe, and I mean safe vcore for a 4690k? Never played with them before... so I'm a bit nervous.
So play it like a westmere, and stay under 1.35?
Yes, I'll go read more... it's my buddies computer, not mine, and I have serious computer issues right now, so I really don't want to read about nice running computer too much.....

Failed Realbench after 7 min at 1.32...4.9is good enuf

So I skimmed through the thread and didn't find anything on the G3258. Any good tips for getting good things out of one?

TheHunter · Sep 28, 2015

So Asus Z87deluxe bios 2003 is the best.
I was @ 2004 for around 3-4weeks but ram @ 2400mhz was still giving me some problems, ok it was a lot stabler then latest 2103 crap but no where near 2003 "beta".

Now at this 2003 and all is smooth @ 2400mhz CL10-12-12-31-2T, trfc 214, adv 3rd timings 4-8-6, with 2004 I had to use 4-8-7 and it would still glitch, nvm 2103 this needed 4-8-8 and which defeated the purpose of 2400mhz OC..
Heh, nice job Asus. Will just stick with this 2003 until further notice.

Kursah · Sep 28, 2015

Makes me wonder if I should try going back to 2003 beta on my Z87 pro boards and seeing if I have better luck playing with OC and Stock + Undervolt situations... been a long time since I tweaked either of my boards... seems yours is related specifically to memory though... any thoughts on CPU clock/voltage between 2103 and 2003?

There is a huge spectrum of overclockability with the chip, I had 2, one was pretty good, the other was an absolute dog, what I would suggest to start with is keep your memory speed low, see what you can get out of the chip that way before trying to tweak memory to higher speeds, the IMC can be very tricky on the 3258.

I also found with my bad one that I was better off fixing the voltage, adaptive setting gave me huge spikes under load. I think I started at 1.2V and then left everything else at that point on auto and just raised the multi incrementally, at that point it will give you a good indication of the quality of the chip, you can then decide, with the cooling to raise voltage to push further, at some point (around 4.5gig for my decent one) I needed to tweak some of the other voltages to keep stability.

Although it may be a motherboard thing, take it steady with your LLC levels, again even at 50% I had some big spikes, I think I started on auto up until about 4.3gig and then just went 25% thereafter.

agent00skid · Sep 28, 2015

Got a fairly budget Z97 board, so I'm not exactly swimming in settings. LLC is on or off on it. But here's some screen dumps for my current setup. And it's running Linux, so my OS monitoring isn't fantastic either.

I managed to do this using my failed TEC water chiller: http://valid.x86.fr/t6s2b3

Water temp was 7C° because the TECs were running at about 65C hot side due to me using too small heatsinks. The CPU was at around 17C. Once I upgrade the heat sinks I should be able to run -10C water.

Cpu cache is also more sensitive by 2103 vs 2003, needs higher voltage or is not stable e.g. 4.2GHz with 2400MHz ram.

Cpuv only slightly 0.003 - 0.004v bump.. e.g. 4.6GHz @ 1.235v by 2003 vs 1.238v by 2103.

MxPhenom 216 · Dec 8, 2015

I think I managed to finally get over 4.4 on my chip. Currently at 4.6ghz at 1.325v. Temps never above 80c. Has passed everything ice thrown at it so far.

I am honestly confused, months ago I couldn't get over 4.4, could barely get it, and need 1.3v. Then I get new memory, jack up the system agent voltage to 1.06v from stock 0.856v, and try it again, and at 4.4ghz only needed 1.275 for stability.

Which leads me to believe that system agent has an effect and depending on how high you increase help reduce how much vcore you need. I think @TheHunter mentioned this months ago. I'm just now putting it to the test.

Toothless · Dec 8, 2015

Sooo slower ram helps with faster cpu? Hmmm....

No, from what @cadaveca was telling me, thats not exactly true. I actually have faster memory now, and pushing higher CPU clock than before.

Slower memory at first might help overclock the CPU without worrying about memory causing the instability issues during testing.

MxPhenom 216 · Dec 8, 2015

Just a quick benchmark run of the entire 3DMark suite. CPu at 4.6. GPU at 1200mhz core(the clock I usually use for benchmarking is 1293).

Toothless · Dec 10, 2015

I'm back at the start of overclocking issues. I wanna say temps are holding me back this time and the F@#$ING VOLTAGE. This chip really hates me.

4.4 can run on 1.2v. I can't do 4.6 unless I'm on 1.3v and then I'll start running the chip into the 60's celsius. I average 50-55c on a few games that force the chip to max turbo (4.4 atm) and that's on 20% load. Now i can multiclient with this game and easily hit 70c but I can't say I trust the game as it's DX9 and HEAVY HEAVY on the CPU. I would like to make sure it won't fry when I have 6 clients up.

what am i doing wrong again guys. toopliss needs halp.

Try increasing system agent voltage. For me that has really helped my chip do 4.6. I could go higher I think just haven't tried. I used to need like 1.3v to do 4.4, but now with system agent voltage at 1.06, I can get 4.4 at 1.275, maybe even 1.25.

Also 60-70 degrees is nothing to worry about with these chips.
