how to get stable oc
how to get stable oc
Hi everyone, this is my first build, so I’m just trying to see how it goes. Lol. I’ve never adjusted a CPU, graphics card, or RAM before, so hopefully you can help me in some settings I can experiment with... I know there are many auto OC tools available, but I really prefer setting it up myself, so here we go.
The specs are: Intel i5-4690K CPU
Corsair H60 water cooling
GA-H97M-D3H motherboard – not the best but gives decent performance...
Crucial Balstic 16GB 1600MHz RAM
NVIDIA GTX Titan X 12GB (Pascal) graphics card
Crucial 120GB SSD for storage
2TB HDD for extra space
Corsair HX750 power supply – I tried Auto-Tune once but it caused my CPU voltage to spike too much and the system got really hot.
If anyone has a similar setup or settings they used, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
Also, just in case I might have posted this in the wrong forum, I’m open to suggestions. This is my installation, and I want to get it right. Thanks!
I'm not completely confident about this. From what I understand, Z motherboards are the only ones capable of overclocking an Intel CPU.
i'm not completely sure about overclocking with that motherboard. from what i understand, z motherboards are the only ones capable of overclocking an intel cpu. however, i can run autotune through the motherboard software, but i prefer doing it manually since i don't know how to do it properly.
The GA-H97M-D3H has a cap on overclocking due to its highest CPU voltage limit of 1.2 Volts.
