Internal Video & Overclocking

$fracking4oil$ · August 10, 2013

I was just sitting here (while the WAN Show is down for the 3rd time tonight) realizing that every time I've done my overclocking on my system I had the internal GPU (Intel HD 4000) enabled. Would I be able to possibly get a better overclock and/or lower volts at an equal overclock if I had the internal GPU disabled? Or would it make no difference what so ever?

nope, no difference.

In fact you might be worst off since you're effectively disabling virtu.

No difference, but except more heat.

I can only speak for the A10-6800k, but i have found that the CPU and GPU are inversly proportional to each other, you crank up the CPU, but have to underclock the GPU and vise versa, you cant crank up both and keep it stable. I have opted for 4.5Ghz CPU and 1Ghz Gpu. If you drop the GPU down to around 900, you can bump the CPU up to 4.7.
