Can't overclock on my Mobo and Graphics card Not at 100% of Use

[Liace]

Hello,

 

My first problem:

I have an Intel Extreme Board DZ77GA-70K Running latest BIOS Update and an I5 3570K.

When I try to turn Turboboost it up It works no problem but when I try to OC it with the multiplier just by 100 Mhz from the BIOS It doesn't want to start..

When I try from Windows It freeze 2 second later and BSOD..

Also fan control Never worked.. I had to buy an external controller.

 

And my second problem:

My graphics card Is never, Really Never at 100% or even 80%. It's always between 50% and 70%. And I can Feel it in my games ! To explain, I saw bunch of bench with my card and they're always a lot better than what I get with mine (exemple BF4 Normal Graphics : >30FPS)..

I have my PC since 2 years and it always been like that.

 

Thanks for reading I hope You can help me..

are you increasing that 100mhz or the multiplier? 

 

 

[Godlygamer23]

Are you actually increasing the multiplier or adjusting the BLCK?

[Liace]

Sorry for the delay..

 

Actually what I meant was that when I tried to change the BCLK from 100 to 101 It made my PC unable to boot.

 

I think It's due to the RAM Clock because when I use the multiplier for the Processor it's fine but,

When I OC my RAM from 1333Mhz to 1600Mhz (Using XMPs) My Pc Just Won't Boot at All..

 

I think the Problem is related to my RAM Clock because changing the BCLK Obviously change the RAM Clock.

Up ?

[dragoon20005]

you should not be touching the BCLK

 

when you mess with it, it also mess up your PCI-E, RAM USB etc

 

use only Multiplier OCing and voltage adjustment

[Liace]

Okay But why does my PC crash when I OC my RAM and also when I push my multiplier to more than 43 ?

if you are running stock voltage

 

you need to bump up the voltage

 

 

make sure you only enable XMP for the RAM

you can refer to overclocking guide videos on youtube

 

most uses Afterburner to tweak the GPU

I've bought that board before and I had same problems, it was fully shithouse unstable.

 

I had read reviews (and heard of more issues these boards had) but still wanted one, feature set is nice, looks great, quite fitting for my build.

Had to re-flash the bios with 3 different versions, one would let me OC, mouse wouldn't work at all, one wouldn't let me OC that far, but RAM was unstable, another one let me not OC at all, but system was stable... for a time

 

I could have just had a bad board...maybe, but after reading reviews first and hearing of issues, I should have known better too.

Got a Asrock Z77 Ext 4, been happy as larry ever since.

 

Any Z77 board is OP'riced at the moment, try to find a bargain replacement.

Thanx a lot SkilledRebuilds it's what I was fearing..

And you too dragoon20005, and the others..
