Possible overclock on non K ?

[Musle]

Hey guys

 

I have a i3 4130 @ 3.4Ghz and i would like to know if it's possible to overclock it ?

 

Thanks

Through the BLCK. Not much else.

You can increase the base clock a little if your board lets you but it can mess up other stuff in the system since everything is based on the base clock and not really worth overclocking an i3.

Oh ok i see, thanks for help.

You could try messing around with BCLK, but there's not really much more you can do. Changing BCLK can be pretty unstable and normally doesn't give much of a boost

You don't even care to read, don't you?

 

OP, ignore this guy. Follow the other posts about the BCLK.

A negligible amount via previous mentioned method.

Ok thanks bro, i gonna test, but i guess it will overclock every composant so.

SSD, RAM etc  ?

 

Is it safe for other hardware ?

You can only overclock certain components - for example, you cannot overclock an SSD.

Just don't go over say 107 BCLK. If you stay within reason everything should be fine.

it's relatively safe if you want to try it, its mainly the RAM and if I recall the GPU that gets affected so it can be running higher than the rated speeds, possibly making the system unstable but you never know.

Assuming your mobo and PSU are decent, yes, you'll be fine. A minor increase in speed won't cause your hardware much trouble.

You have to increase the base clock speed, but be careful becausee it will OC EVERYTHING ELSE CONTROLLED BY THE BLCK!

Forgive me for not reading a post that wasnt even posted yet, I will use my crystal ball next time sorry. :rolleyes:

Well, that's on mainstream boards. Enthusiast boards have no problem hitting something like 125MHz usually. It's how people overclocked the i7-3820 back in the day.

No, I have no idea why that CPU exists; a quadcore without OC potential or an iGPU with the same IPC as a 2600K. *shakes head at Intel*

ONE DAY. MARK MY WORDS. I WILL OVERCLOCK A SSD.

 

*proceeds to overclock monitor, both video cards, processor and RAM in defiance of inability to overclock SSD*
