hi all, i have an intel core i53570k and have had it overclocked on this board before, but i had a reset and have forgotten what to change! i know to change the multi, but what voltages should i adjust? i'm also running a custom water loop with a 360 rad so temps shouldn't be a problem, i'm just blanking! thanks!

thanks for the link, i did what it said and set it to 4.5 @ 1.25v with the llc set to ultra high instead of extreme, it passed intel burn test no problem but about an hour into gaming (dark souls 2) i blue screened! should i bump to extreme or step hz to 4.4 instead? thanks again!

Yep - drop it back a notch

ok, do you think that makes sense though that it was a seemingly random blue screen?

Have you also overclocked your graphics card?

Yes, I have a Evga classy 780 and it's water cooled and over clocked to +120/+350 at a voltage of 1.25v. I haven't had an issue til the cpu oc though.

Maybe drop it back a notch too. Blue screen is usually graphics card problem. Did you test this too?

OK I may try, though for my card that's not much of an overclock.

It's having voltages too high that do this sort of thing.

True, does 1.25 seem too high? That's .05 over stock.
