Same BlueScreen Code 124 issue after flashing 5820k
I don’t see anything clear, especially since I’m still learning as a new overclocker. I thought a fixed voltage would always stay at 1.17, no matter whether it was idle or under load.
In the MSI BIOS, under "Core/Ring Voltage mode," there are several choices:
- Auto
- Adaptive
- Override (Fixed)
- Offset
- Adaptive + Offset
- Override + Offset
Choosing offset mode means I need to set:
- Core Voltage mode (positive or negative)
- Core Voltage value
- Ring Voltage mode (positive or negative)
- Ring Voltage value
I haven’t found a straightforward guide for adjusting offset values, and MSI uses different terms compared to other manufacturers. That’s why I’ve been hesitant to try offset until I can find clearer references.
Appreciate your help!
From stock, adjust Vcore offset to 1.25v, enable Turbo at 43x all cores, and 40x ring bus. Increase Vring/Uncore & Vin to 0.5v from stock. Turn off C3/C6, keep EIST active. If your RING has separate voltage and clock, match them to Vcore. This setup offers a solid starting point. Consider trying 44x or a lower voltage next. Refer to "Overclocking Haswell" guides.
