Need assistance! Won't share even a little bit of OCing!
Hi all,
When I flip the little EZ Overclocking switch in the ASRock BIOS and reboot, my PC won't post. It'll freeze right after the bios screen. I should definitely be able to at least use the basic overclocking options, if not more.
Here's what I'm running:
ASRock x99 Taichi
Intel 6850k
Samsung 960 Pro M.2
32GB GSkill 3000mHz
EVGA 1200P2
Zotac GTX1080
-- All liquid cooled (have never hit temps above 40C [CPU] and 65C [GPU])
WHAT'S WRONG???
It will run just fine not overclocked, but I've run into some serious throttling issues with music production.
Do you have the latest bios information ready? If not, that’s likely where you should begin. There may be a problem with the microcode or OC profile settings in older versions, so let’s address that first before moving forward. More importantly, OC buttons and utilities are generally not ideal for overclocking due to the high voltage levels set for stability. I strongly suggest performing your own manual overclocking within the bios, and once you’ve updated the bios, feel free to let me know—I’m happy to assist.

It’s also worth noting that using OC buttons and utilities for overclocking is risky due to the high voltage levels set by the system to ensure stability. I strongly suggest manually adjusting the OC settings within the bios—today’s tools make this very simple. Once you’ve updated the bios, let me know and I’ll be happy to assist further.
