@wtubella:

hare fotos de mi bios and I will upload them, goodbye

Here is a video and you must touch advanced setting to raise the multiplier, or CPU ratio here you see

it is the same motherboard and same CPU, what works for the one in the video should work for you, although your CPU may need more or less voltage.
You should not touch the PWM phase control, leave it on auto that is more for extreme OC with LN2, raising or relaxing the phases, in reality there are few things to touch beyond vcore, multiplier VCCIO, depending on the motherboard, for OC 24/7 many options are not touched.

goodbye

@defaultuser:

What bad luck no…..

I would leave the board alone to make its beeps, and I would add the components one by one until it stops beeping, and if the board by itself doesn't beep or give any error then we know.

First just the board and the power supply
then board power supply and micro
then you add the ram
and finally you add the graphics

it would be good to know what "AA" means on that board

and it would also be good to test the graphics in another PC. You don't even need to touch drivers, just see the POST or bios in another PC with that graphics is enough.

Get the list of messages from the bios and boot the board alone with the power supply to see if it gives a normal message (cpu not present or something like that), or what it does....

Edit:
Maybe it would be a good idea to post your problem in the motherboard section with an appropriate title.

Regards.

Thanks to everyone for responding. The truth is that the board has definitely died. It had a power cut and everything thanks to the lightning that fell and also fried my router and well, I have to buy everything back.

It's a real shame anyway, thanks to everyone. I'm going to be testing overclocking with the new board which I'm looking at and most likely I'll buy the ASUS P9X79 or an EVGA x79. I'm not sure which one could be good.

Regards

Thanks in advance,
Following another post, I took those voltages as a reference and tried them out.
I ended up with 3.5, raising it to 170 and the memos to 680. With a voltage of 1.21v. I don't know if that's too much. First I tried with 1.225 as I had the other, but I saw that it went up to 65-68º, so I left it at 1.21.
On the other hand, after trying and playing. I see that there are points where it gets stuck. As if it's going to hang, but it doesn't. I don't know if it's because the hdd can't handle it.
I've lowered it a bit to 169, everything is the same, it stays at 3.5 and the memos at 670. I haven't touched the voltage of the ram.
I selected a type of memory and from there I started raising it from 100, first trying 200 (it bounced back) and from 100 upwards until I matched it with the ram.
I don't know if I did it right.

@Maegirom:

Hello again.
I'm back because overnight my PC told me it wouldn't boot with this OC. Since I set it up, it's been working great, with the temperatures I gave you before, Prime and Linx tests passed, etc...

And today, as soon as I turned it on, I got the overclock failed message.
For now, I've increased a little (the minimum allowed increase) the vcore and the qpi voltage (vtt) and it seems to be going well. Right now I'm running Prime.

I'm annoyed that this increase makes a "7" appear again in the core temperature (right now I have a core at 70°C), when I had managed to keep them at a maximum of 68°C.

But what really bugs me is why what worked great yesterday (and for 2 months) doesn't want to boot today. Could it be that in 2 months the OC has deteriorated the components to the point of needing a little more voltage?

Thanks.
Best regards.

Well, you don't have to worry about the temperatures. They're good!
It's an i7 920 (2.6 ghz) standard, and you're already boosting it to 3.8 ghz.
It's logical that temperatures go up due to the voltage increase (necessary).
A system with good temperatures is considered when it passes stress tests (the most aggressive are the Intel Burn Test), and doesn't exceed 80ºC on the cores.
Because in your day to day, you won't reach that, not even close.

For example, in my tests, with an i7 950 4.00Ghz, with the same cooler as yours, I reach 78-77-75-74, the 4 cores, after 20 passes with the IntelBurnTest that uses 100% of the proc. and 95% of the memory during the test that lasts about an hour.
Similarly, Prime95 for 8 hours and doesn't go over that temperature, doesn't reach 80ºC.
Well, when playing games (which is what can stress you the most among other things), it doesn't exceed 70°C, all cores are around 60-68... We're doing great!
That's why your temperatures are GOOD.

The voltages are also quite low, that's probably why you got an OC failure.
I started with vcore 1.3, VTT 1.35, PLL 1.86, IOH 1.20... with 200x20.
And I've managed to lower the vcore for example, to 1.237, VTT to 1.33... I've left the rest like that.

Another thing. LLC corrects vdrop and vdroop... but doesn't eliminate it completely. Keep that in mind. Moreover, the closer the Vcore is to its limit, the lower the vdrop you'll have, up to a point that I in IDLE and in FULL had the same voltage (1.200v) and in the end it gave me an error.
In full, the voltage always drops more than in idle, generally speaking.

I would disable speedtest and C1E. It can cause instability (the voltage drops too much) and may be what failed you.

Regarding the benchmark result, 3dmarkvantage, keep in mind that it's a graphics benchmark, so what influences the most is the graphics. That's why you haven't noticed much gain.
Do the same with cinebench (cpu), and there you'll really notice the improvement, since it's a cpu usage test exclusively. (of the two it has, select the cpu test)

Best regards

I am not offended at all. Let's just say that I want to keep this pc because I have more than 200 hours invested in setting things up (in fact, I am going to buy another hd to make raid 1). I have already sold the current ram to a friend and for a little more, I am going to get a better one. The computer will be used for emulation and few or almost none of the emus support quad core, even so I take notes on what you tell me.

In the end, after testing, I reached 4.5 but I will only put it on occasionally jeje for normal use and to play I will leave it at 4.3 which I think is enough jeje.

Pd: at 4.5 and with a little oc to the graphics I got 11,750 in the 3d mark11 is a good score for my team?

Well, since we're on the subject, what about temperatures during stability tests?

By the way, with 750W on the label, are there any that are so bad that you wouldn't use that equipment? 70% efficiency would be about 525W.

Best regards.

Interesting job! And now to bench with the little box

If I think the topic goes to another site. There are several options regarding voltages, which I have not wanted to touch due to ignorance, but I know people who have overclocked this micro to 4.0Ghz, and I have also seen tests on the internet with a P5K (with worse cooling than my P5KR) reaching 520 Mhz FSB, and I am still at 440Mhz, so there is margin, what is not known is exactly where I have to touch.

And to tell the truth, in my day to day and with the use I give to the computer, I think I also do not need more. You always get the curiosity to know the limit of this hardware configuration, but, I also do not want to risk damaging any of the components unnecessarily, so unless I see very clearly how to proceed, the OC will stay like this, which I think is already quite achieved considering that I am an amateur in these parts.

Goodbye, and thanks for the help. Agur

@gamingpy:

Suggestions…:wall:

Is it stable? If it is, that's the important thing, the memory should go to 1.65v, maybe that will allow you to lower the vcore a bit, I would leave the CPU power phase Auto, in these boards I think you shouldn't touch too many things and the optimized is more for energy saving, it could destabilize the OC although your OC is small and should be easy to keep stable.

Also, I leave the loadline Auto, although I don't have a board from that platform, maybe it's similar, I have a maximus VI, but in Auto it works well, to see it you could monitor voltage if for example in Windows you have 1.26v and when you enter OCCT it goes down, then possibly you have to put Loadline, if you see that the voltage is maintained or it goes down very little, then it's better to leave it Auto.

regards

I don't know why people say that Asus motherboards are bad, when in my opinion they are some of the best on the market, that is, in terms of quality-price ratio, ASRock are probably the best.
But I would love to have a Rampage in my rig… anyway, it seems to be a matter of personal taste.

Well, leaving the Asus topic aside, I would clearly recommend the 3570K with a Z77 motherboard, and for under 80 euros I would recommend the ASRock Z77 Pro4, although if you are planning to do OC you should stretch a bit and go for an extreme one, the investment is worth it in every way.

@Blood:

Does the bios recognize them well?

Or said in another way so that it is not confused with an object, did you see that it only recognizes a module in Windows, or does the bios and the POST also only recognize a module?

I understand that you did a reset, not an update or rewrite of bios.

Why did you need to reset it? Was it doing oc?

Sometimes the reset resists and you have to repeat it, or do it in a thorough way.

Salu2.

Reading and reading guides I have learned a lot, after experimenting I have decided to only touch the multiplier at x20 and the vcore at 1.4v which is where I find stability.

I have been testing the results with 3dmark vantage and it has improved quite a bit from when it was at 3.4Ghz to the current 4 Ghz, I thought the result would be less, but I am happy, I hope it remains stable like this.

At first I did not increase the voltage to the processor and with one of the 3dmark tests it would just restart, but it has been increasing it little by little until 1.4 and there without any problem.

The issue of touching the northbridge, the HT link and the bus with their voltages I have been playing around but I could not leave it stable, so I have decided simply for the multiplier and vcore and I am happy.

If anyone has any configuration that they think is better I would appreciate it, I have also increased the ram to 1600Mhz.

Above all, the one that doesn't want OC on those CPUs is Intel, they want you to buy a K and they also don't like it very much if you can OC it too much. Then MSI, I suppose that now they have improved with the new platforms but I have a P45 platinum and it must be one of the worst P45 for OC, I had a P5K Premium and it gives the MSI a good beating in terms of being able to OC the same CPU, in addition to much better bios options for OC both for CPU and memory, the bios wasn't the most advanced either, but you could get much more out of it than the MSI. The people at Intel are a bit hypocritical, because before releasing them they gave better CPUs to the review websites, even to some overclockers, but that's talking about K processors. regards

@M@rkos13:

what voltage should I put on the memory and the CPU?

Don't put more than 1.45v on the CPU. I'm talking about voltage to maintain that OC for daily use, to pass some benchmark if you could ever put something more, but the CPU's VID will greatly influence it. If it's low, it's easy to keep it with 1.35v. If it's a bad VID, you'll need to give more voltage. Enable loadline Calibration.

The memory, depending on what they are, you can look at the label that usually comes attached or you can look at that model on the manufacturer's page. It will tell you frequency, voltage and latency. For 1600, it shouldn't ask for more than 1.80v or 1.85v maximum. In new platforms, DDR3 is usually not exceeded 1.65v even for 2400mhz memory, but in 775 it was common to put more voltage. It was a greener DDR3 than the current one and I suppose that the platform couldn't treat the memory like the current ones.

But put what the manufacturer recommends or a little more.

@camilo9712:

hello everyone, I'm new to this forum and to pc gamers or semi gamers
recently I built my first pc and it has 4 fans and liquid cooling
I have an fx 6100 3.3 GHz but in the system after doing oc genie 2 it appears as 3.71 GHz, after turning it off it still appears and what I want to do is do a manual oc to make it more optimal
I have an msi 970A-46G motherboard and I know it's old but it's my budget and it has the option for automatic or manual oc and the green power option that allows you to control the automatic speed of your fans (cpu fan, system 1, system2) which I don't know if I left all with smart fan or I put all 3 to manual where I can choose between 50%,75%,100% I was at 100 and it's very annoying and unnecessary since it's not an extreme oc and I left it on. I also have a 500w psu and an r9 270x card
how to do a stable oc around 4.0 GHz?
if I do it will it be permanent?
what speed do I put with the fans and what option?
my case has fan control, they rotate and you adjust the speed so if I adjust this is it like adjusting it with the program?
what temperatures are normal?
when I'm not gaming will there be any option to disable the oc and lower the fan speed or will I have to keep those speeds when I'm not gaming?
and is the gpu fan separate? if I increase the gpu fan speed won't it increase the other fans and vice versa?

With AMD I don't have much idea but I think you should increase multiplier and bus, here's a video of an MSI 990X but you have to change the same things even though it might have more bios options, in the end you touch almost the same things.

I don't know if it will have some kind of saving mode or offset to lower frequency and voltage when the CPU doesn't need to work, I suppose they already have saving modes similar to Intel, the best thing is to read a guide because in that video they put 4500 MHz and put more voltage and with a guide you'll know what you should touch and the safe voltages, here I see one for FX with UEFI bios and you'll surely find more things clear.

They also explain about the offset or dynamic Vcore so that the OC only turns on when the CPU is working.

GUIA-TUTORIAL OVERCLOCK AMD FX-8xxx CON BIOS UEFI. Reescrito los tweaks para el throttle (1 de 15) @ ElOtroLado.net PC Hardware Overclock y modding

regards

After many tests and tweaks, it seems that I have managed to leave it stable at 9-9-9-24 2N@2000Mhz.
I was advised to touch some voltages (QPI, IOH, ICH and CPU PLL apart from increasing the RAM voltage a little more to take into account the Vdrop that my motherboard has) and it works perfectly.
12 hours of prime95 and more than one memtest later, the computer is working perfectly. At 4.2, after several hours of prime, it does not exceed 75º.

By the way, having it stable, I tried to increase the latencies to check the performance with different latencies at 2000Mhz and the truth is that there was hardly any difference in synthetic tests, so I imagine that in everyday use it won't even be noticeable.

Best regards and thanks!!!

Hello and welcome

Assuming you have read OC guides, why not tweak the multiplier? And you could leave the memos on Auto, so they don't limit the FSB.

Best regards

Hello. I have the same problem, my motherboard is the Z68XP-ud3 and the processor i5 3570k, I also can't raise the multiplier more than 38, I have the F10 BIOS.
Thanks
It's okay, just by updating the BIOS to UEFI it already lets you raise it.

Ok, so, to do it right, exactly what do I have to do, beginner's manual. :love:
