Need Some Help Overclocking 2600K/ASUS P8P67 Combo

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · May 21, 2017

i would rather leave H/T on and lose 100mhz

If you dont use apps that make use of Hyperthreading then it would be better to turn it off if youre interested in going for a higher OC -- you dont need to do this unless you really want to squeeze the balls off it. It'll also help with temps (as you know)

Sorry if i sound like im talking to you as someone new to overclocking but i have no idea your level of understanding so better I lay it all out incase you havent read it.

Hey, don't worry. Although I think I have a decent knowledge, you are doing just fine. No worries bud. I have expeiremnted with HT on/off in the past with this same chip and I seem to like it with HT on more. I can always do the test again with the current games I like to play in the mean time, but I do crunch for TPU and having 8 threads as opposed to 4 would hurt the performance in those terms.

Although HT helps more than even a hefty overclock in most recent games. Just see the comparisons between 2500K and 2600K various sites posted (e.g. Gamers Nexus)

I just looked it up and seems like out of hte box the 2600K gives slightly better FPS, but also comes clocked at 100MHz higher. I'm glad you pointed that out, as performances in some cases are even better from the 2500K.

I think I will have to agree.

So far this has been stable most of the day. Looks like this chip just wants to get fed

4.5GHz going strong for about 45 minutes now. Pray to god it's stable :roll:

I added a push fan on the CPU cooler. So instead of just one pull, I now have a push and pull setup. Seems to have lowered temps like 1-2ºc.

YIS!!! Did I like (and is more what I was expecting you'd get out of this combo

)

Still going at 4.5GHz, seems to be pretty stable for now. I'll leave it crunching over night, and all day tomorrow. If it's still alive after that when the temps rise considerably during the day, I think we may have a winner here. :rockout:

Even if some 2600k's go a little further.. That's still a 1.1Ghz overclock! :pimp:

Nice.

FilipM · May 22, 2017

As long as you are below 80C, feed it

Shet, you gonna make me try 4.5 stable on mine later today

Chicken Patty · May 22, 2017

Today will be the ultimate test for temperature as it's really hot and the A/C will be off all day. 4.5GHz did crash overnight. Ran good for about 12-14 hours. I think another slight bump in voltage and it should be good.

I've been able to leave all voltages stock just added .040 to CPU and up the Power Limits. See if there is an option for that also.
I could NOT change voltages to get any stable O/C in the beginning, and Dave noticed Intel changed the naming of voltages so it was hit and miss but ultimately this is all I had to do for it to work
Even when I run it at 5.2 I just up the multi for that.
That said both boards are set up different, but maybe it will give you a different clue to look for.
I've seen XTU report 1.360-1.4250 when maxed out 4 cores 4.9-5.2

Thank you so much for this info. I'll look everything over again but really starting to look like this chip just wants to be fed. But never hurts to try different things.
