Squeeze out a better OC

Go to solution Solved by airdeano,

I was wondering if I could get a little help tuning my OC on my 3570k. Right now I'm stable at 4.2 ghz for about 8 months not, however, I've got a little extra free time and wanted to tinker and get just a bit more out of overclock,

My rig is a 3570k on a gigabyte Z77-UD3H, good board but I wish I had gone Asus, H100i with noctuas in pull with low noise adapters kingston hyperx blue 2x4gb sticks soon to grab 16gb, MSI 660 ti PE (which happened to be a great overclocker), and finally a OCZ 600 watt PSU.

Right now I have all the turbo multipliers set to 42 and vcore set to auto and I know thats not that desireable having set it on auto but thats why I'm here. I am aware that I can set my voltages but they will be stuck at that constant voltage even at idle, thats why I really wanted that adaptive voltages like on some Asus boards.

Hardware monitor has seen my max vcore hit 1.320 votts but even at 100% load, I've never gone above 72 and thats yet another reason I wanted to up my OC cuz my temps were pretty decent.

I have tried uping my turbo multipliers to 44 but was somewhat discouraged by temps because again voltage is at auto so if theres anyway to make adaptive voltages like on Asus boards that would be awesome and I would also love to know what everyone else's comfortable temperatures are because maybe I'm just taking temps too precautiously.

 

So any help would be much appreciated

 

this would be a great guide for you. using the same motherboard (so the UEFI is the same).

And if your wondering my 660 ti OC then look below

 

All done in afterburner:

1267 mhz core clock (+70), 3665 mhz memory clock (+640), Core Voltage +70, Mem Voltage +30, Aux Voltatge +10

Temps have never gone above 65 and my fan never spins more than 70% EVER even while mining litecoins which by the way I get 200 khash/s with cuda miner
