Fun Story

So before I get started on my ran of why iGPU's are both terrible and great, im sorry if this was in the wrong place but if kinda goes in both CPU's and GPU's

 

Anyway, i'm just a broke 14 year old and wanna play games on the lowest preset at 1080p 60-75 FPS but I only have a iGPU (not that iGPU's are bad they are great). In my quest for getting the most FPS I have OC'ed the balls of my i5-13600K to the point were it is taking 350W and also doing like 5.5-5.6 GHz even though this does not impact games that much. During this stupidity I may or may not have gone through like 2 mobos. Thanks so much MSI. This weekend I found out that the new intel integrated graphics are hugely OC'able and ive been using this article. I havent been able to make nearly the gains he has though. I got from 900 ish to 1100 ish in furmark but aslo the guide shows it almost hitting 2500. To be fair I havent taken the OC as far as they have cause my RAM is being kinda shit and never getting past its rated speed of 5200 MHz, and sometimes not even hitting it. Also whenever I increase the BLCK it just dies and there isn't even a chance. Sometime times is posts and gets stuck there, others it gets past that and gives me the recovery page and crashes there, and others still get to windows and crash there. I also don't have and ASUS board with the fancy AI crap so what can I do to increase performance out of the iGPU?

 

Right now I have it set to 1.2V static with no power cap and the frequency up as high as it will go. Heres my setup: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/j8pQrD

why didn't you get a gpu with the money you threw away on the motherboards

my only suggestion next is to read your member title. But its weird to see you getting such a flagship board as an "RMA unit because the lower end ones are unavailable", a lot of vendors resort to refunds instead nowadays.

op had his pc running slower than our 1.99 ghz school chromebooks at one point. i also think he got a reporting error saying the chip was drawing 700w at 105c on an nhd15s

Flagship? I got the board for like sub 200 and they were pretty chill with it
