I've got the same configuration as you, and the same issue, lucky us right? Any chance you figured out a way to get round it, other than using throttlestop and disabling BDPROSHOT (I think that's the right one, might not have spelt it right though."

Motherboard CPU voltage issues

Thanks mate. I'll do it a bit later, just needed to make sure that I wouldn't kill a second CPU! -
Motherboard CPU voltage issues
Theseus_3gg replied to Theseus_3gg's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
It was edited in the BIOS -
So I managed (being the genius that I am) to utterly fry my CPU. I increased the voltage of the motherboard to the CPU, which proved to be fatal to the processor, as you can imagine. Now, having got another CPU, I'd like to know if putting a new CPU into the same Mobo will destroy the brand new CPU. I cleared the Motherboard CMOS by taking out the battery for 10 mins. but I'm hesitant to put my new CPU in for fear of the same result. Can anyone clarify what I need to do if this hasn't done the trick? Thanks from London.

The only issue I had with the Jumper method of things is that I don't have a jumper! I do have two sticks, of RAM, you'd tell me to take one out? Ok, I'll do that. And just so you know, you're right, I don't have another CPU to hand. If I was to put in a new CPU, surely the BIOS would fry it just like we think it might have done this one, or does it reset the CPU settings?

So, it looks like the CMOS clear didn't work. I'm still having the same result. Given the symptoms of the computer, do you lot have any idea what else I might be able to do to sort it out?

I've got an Intel: i7 6700 and im using the MSI H170 Gaming M3 mobo

Ok, just so you don't think I'm a complete fool, my CPU wasn't functioning at optimal speeds, he said it could have something to do with a low voltage. "Put the voltage up to the maximum" so I did. and now this happens. I don't have a jumper so I'll have to try the removing battery. Thanks for the help, mate.

Right, So I messed with the voltage on my CPU via the BIOS (as per the instructions of an intel technician) and to my shock and awe, the computer no longer works. When the power button is pressed, the computer lights up, however the peripherals do not! Furthermore, the fully functioning monitor does not detect an output. I've checked the monitor and all my peripherals on another device, they all work. It would very much appear that my messing with the CPU voltage has done one of two things; Fried the CPU, although I think it is unlikely (I may be wrong) Or The BIOS is no longer stable. (this is my assumption). For this reason, if anyone can help me reset the BIOS using some kind of hardware, preferably, but not exclusively without a jumper cap. Thanks from London, LTT guys.

So, as per the instructions of an intel tech, I opened up my bios and change the voltage on my CPU. However, it would appear now, that my computer will not post. At at least I previously had a semi functional station. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The high power mode did nothing so I'm currently BIOS but I don't know what the upper limits are. I'd need a number for both the voltage, SA and IO and the CPU ratio and ring ratio. I think it goes without saying, that I am out of my depth.

Ok, I have a MSI H170 Gaming M3. It's running MSI Click BIOS 5.
-
I'm a bit slow, could you run me through it here? Where will I find the multiplier, exactly what to set it to, etc. Sorry to be a pain but I'm not one to go messing with my BIOS unless I know what I'm doing.

It seems that@Electronics Wizardy said it first, the Frequency does seem to be abnormally low. I couldn't change it myself and a few googles came up with nothing useful. If anyone has a video about how I can change the freq of a non-K skew chip, I'd appreciate that.
