Hi, I just built an I7-4960X 3.6mhz and when overclocking, the system runs FSX like a champ OC'd to 4600mhz but if I try to run it at 4700, I cant get past the bios setup screen. I have updated the bios and my temps seem fine. I have lowered the voltage but cant seem to run over 4600 under any circumstances.

Thanks in advance!

If temps are ok (under 80C) on stress testing, you may try for 4.8GHz with the least stable VCore possible, I'd rather not take it beyond 1.35V.OK, I'll try that thank you.
On the Ram side, I am running 4 4gb corsair vengance 1600mhz ddr3. Is it faster to run 4 32gb for better cooling or otherwise? Will this MOBO support 1 stick of ram?
