Hi folks,
Just upgraded my gaming system to the following specs:
MB - MSI Z87-G45 Gaming
CPU - Intel Core i5 4670K
CPU Cooler - Corsair H80
Mem - G-Skill Trident X 2x4GB DDR3-2400 CL10.12.12.31
GPU - Stock core XFX 7860 2GB DDR5
PSU - Xigmatek NRP-MC651 650W
Case - Coolermaster HAF X
Have the latest 1.6 BIOS.
For some reason I cannot manually change the CPU Clock Ratio? Says Auto, but not selectable at all. Manual says it is selectable when the CPU supports this, which it does, when I press the OC Genie button, it increases to 40 and the 4670k ticks along nicely at 4Ghz, so I assume the MB knows the CPU can have it's clock ratio tweaked.
I am probably missing something really basic, but I would like to manually set the overclock and tweak the voltages - only mildly, say 4.2, but have seen others with stable 4.6, so might try that.
Any ideas? I have screen shots of bios, but cannot seem to link them here
Any help really appreciated.
cheers
