Lazor Engineered PC Mk1(Not really made with a lazor though..)

I now installed a CoolerMaster 212 Evo in my machine.. Now im on a overclock of 5Ghz on my A6 6400k.

Firestrike Benchamark, Stock: 3000 http://www.3dmark.com/fs/2439067

Here are some pictures:

This is the reason why i put this in the Modding section, The 212 Evo did not really fit in the case so i hammered it out a bit.

Oh dang, ain't 1.5 volts too much? btw what are temps? I want to OC my a6 too to get rid of that bottleneck

It was at around 1.5 volts at stock too, As long as the temps are in check it wont really be a problem.

Just do some rough math and make sure the amount of watts are not too high for the motherboard, If your motherboard supports the athlon 760k you should be able to reach 5ghz without problems, Probably higher.

I dont have much time to play around with a overclock today, So 5ghz seems pretty decent.

We have the same mobo's . Could you give me some tips on OC'ing mine a6 too?

Disable the Turbo core And Cool n quiet(So the CPU will perform at its best).

The base should be at 100Mhz while only change the Multiplier.

I have the voltage at Auto, It is faster and easier to overclock that way And i cant manually change it on my motherboard(Maybe in a future update).

Try to stay below 60-70 degrees C and you will be fine.

I use MSI control center to set a custom fan curve and check the temps, All other softwares just go crazy and say it is at around 100 degrees at all times.

Thanks! I hope my cpu has won the silicon lottery too!
