I5-6600k can't overclock
I5-6600k can't overclock
Hey guys, maybe someone can assist me.
MB: MSI H270 gaming m3
CPU: i5-6600k
GPU: MSI GTX1060 6gb
When I try to overclock the CPU, I have options between CPU Ratio and Ring Ratio, but I can't go higher than 3.6MHz for CPU Ratio. The ring ratio isn't locked. What should I do? Please help...
p.s. Sorry for my English.

When I attempt to overclock the CPU, I have options between CPU Ratio and Ring Ratio, but the CPU Ratio is capped at 3.6MHz, and the Ring Ratio isn't fixed. What should I do with this? Please help...

The Ring Ratio relates to your CPU cache and has minimal effect beyond benchmarks.
There are two aspects to CPU overclocking: Base Clock and Multiplier.
You usually don’t need to focus on the base clock unless you’re experimenting. Most people just increase the multiplier slightly. The base clock is typically around 100, while the multiplier ranges from about 40 to 45, depending on the CPU model.
For my setup, I have a Base Clock of 103 and a Multiplier of 45. That gives me a speed of approximately 4635 MHz.
Hope this clears things up!

But I can’t go beyond 36 and I’m confused about why.
