Overclocking problem
Overclocking problem
Hello, I hope this message comes across clearly.
I began attempting to overclock my CPU recently.
Processor: Intel core i7 2600K
Motherboard: Asus p8h67-m
Cooler: Scyte Mugen 5 CPU cooler.
Currently, I encounter an issue:
When I change the voltage in the BIOS and then check with HWMonitor, CPUZ, or another tool, the CPU readings fluctuate constantly, reaching up to 3,913.
After starting a stress test (such as Burnintest, CPUID Powermax, etc.), the core values drop to 3,604 and stop changing.
According to Burnintest, the temperature is only around 48°C, which shouldn’t be an issue.
It appears that some setting or function resets the CPU back to a previous value when loaded.
I’ve tried everything I could—flashing BIOS, enabling/disabling features—but nothing works.
Anyone have an explanation for this?
There are no AVX functions available in the BIOS.
The only offset is located at this position:
Does your CPU operate in a fixed or adjustable mode? You'll likely prefer the fixed setting to avoid unnecessary changes.
I believe you want to disable the auto-mode.
The image shown here comes from the manual.
The AI Overclock Tuner is set to manual.
The EPU power-saving mode is turned off.
The CPU voltage has been adjusted to 1.3.
Usually my processor stays under 30%. When I begin burning test, it goes to 100%. Why isn't it allowing the CPU to exceed 3 or 4? The temperatures are normal.
