Burning in new build 3570k + Z77-UD5H

[Sasqui]

4.7 Ghz, cont'd...

After instant reboot at 1.3 and 1.375... I'm now at 1.4v. This is the "WALL" ...I will likely stick to 4.5 GHz 24/7

Subbed! Just got the same board with a quad..yet to build though!

Get to work.

Edit.. HOT!

 

[cadaveca]

not THAT hot, because max temp is 105c...still got 20C to go.

that said, 4.6 GHz would be my choice. All my Intel chips hit that, actually. I need 1.35 V for that with my 3570K though.

I bumped it back to 1.39v in BIOS, much better temps. This will be under H2O soon, I think 4.6 Ghz will be my choice either way... unless water proves better.

I smell bacon!

4.7 Ghz 1.39v (BIOS) ...still going after an hour!

 

[Jack1n]

When I tried out of the box at 4.4, everything was set to auto including the voltage, I just changed the multi to 44. The auto setting bumped it up to 1.35v or so, the chip hit 80c in Prime 95, and I smelled hot electronics when I left and came back into the room.

Try setting the voltage to 1.27 and speed at 4.2 ... re-boot and then go back into BIOS and set it to 4.4 or 4.5 see what happens.

You're on BIOS F14?

Yes it came with llike F5 but i flashed it to newest,maybe because im runnings slightly tight memory timings?

Always overclock one item at a time. CPU first, let the memory loose while you do that.

 

[Jack1n]

Well if the cpu OC dosent play nice with the memory OC ill just stay at 4.5 since i gain more performance that way.
Also its wierd that you could smell something at 80c+, when my cpu had 1.44v running through it in intel burn test it was touching 101,102c on a few cores and i didnt smell a thing.

4.7 Ghz 1.39v 8 hour Prime95 run

Success!

I'm suspecting the IHS is a big wildcard in overclocking. If my chip wasn't doing as well as it is, I was planning on de-lidding. That was one of the reasons I didn't go for the Intel warrantee. The other was the chip cost well under $200.

SuperPi 1M @4.7Ghz < 8 Seconds!!!

wOOt!

 

[Jack1n]

Very nice,but your not going to run that 24/7 right?,also i was wondering what is your ambient temp?

 

[JNUKZ]

Very nice! the temps are a bit high...

 

[brandonwh64]

That is a good clock! I would leave either 4.5/4.6 which ever you feel comfortable with the voltages.

 

[Jack1n]

Nah temps are fine,For that voltage/clock they are really low.
What im wondering how is your min temp so low and how is it even across all the cores

 

[Sasqui]

Pretty cool here in New England with the heat down at night it's probably around 60F

Very nice! the temps are a bit high...

Yea, the CM 212 Evo fan was running at full blast. I have the voltages as low as they'll go to be stable at that speed. It'll eventually be in a watercooled HAF 932 case, but I suspect it won't help me get past that speed at the same voltage.

That is a good clock! I would leave either 4.5/4.6 which ever you feel comfortable with the voltages.

Yea, 4.6 seems to be the sweet spot. Best to find the top and back it down a notch for 24/7.

Looks great! I wonder if the 3770K does any better?

Yes the 3770k usually gets better results especialy if you disable HT.

 

[sauria]

Thanks

My VID appears lower than yours but your CPU overclocks slightly better voltage wise it appears.


Quality results either way.

Thanks, I'm pleased... and really interested to see it under H2O. I have a feeling I won't get to that till the holiday is behind us.

The only thing I adjusted in BIOS was the VCore and multi. I'm still trying to figure out how to get VCore to drop back to normal when it's idling. When I set manually, it's stuck there. Someone mentioned a way to do it. I still don't understand VID and load line calibration and all that.

The G.Skill sniper memory I got is great stuff. Once I get the BIOS/CPU all figured out, I'm going to try pushing that, I suspect I'll get near 2500 or more with relaxed timings.

 

[drdeathx]

Like Jack said wait a few days and the temps will drop its normal.
Going to buy for christmas 3570K and the same cooler so this thread is very useful to me.
Hope you can overclock it to 4,5~4,7 with nice temps using the CM 212 EVO.

He doesn't have to wait a few days. He may gain 1 to 2 degrees. The CPU is ready to rock.

4.7 Ghz 1.39v 8 hour Prime95 run

Those temps are about 10 degrees past safe.

 

[Jack1n]

Those temps are about 10 degrees past safe.

Thats pretty much the temps you would be gettings with the stock cooler,at stock speeds so hes fine.

 

[XL-R8R]

Those temps are about 10 degrees past safe.

Just.... no?







See "Jacks" post for a similar line of thought to myself.

Sasqui, you're having a good OC experience with Z77X-UD5H? Easy to use?

Recently bought the parts for a new rig and besides the review made on TPU, i did not ask to any person about the OC potential this board has. I'll OC a 3770K with a H100... so i'll probably get better temps, but that does not change the OC experience with the board (i guess).
