I am wondering if anyone has had any issues with this as I will be running it tonight.

I'm thinking that I'll set my BIOS back to defaults and then run the tool.

Is there a consideration that the tool is overclocking at the same time that Turbo Boost is running on my CPU?

Thanks

Thanks - it seems like the turbo boost has been effectively turned off as Asus is just controlling the stepping.

When I ran the 5-way optimization it basically doesn't even go through 1 step on the TPU page when testing preformance and then it just boots at 14% overclock. Any idea why it doesn't even test higher? It seems like it should be able to go higher but perhaps my fan (Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO) isn't that good. temps only go to about 53 C.

Yea, I'm not that new to OC'ing but I have been reading a lot about the enhancements to the tool. I do agree that the voltages are generally a little bit higher but the thresholds that they set are also quite low so the risk seems to be extremely low or non-existent so I have no issues testing the tool.

I guess I'm looking to see if anyone has some experience with the tool as to why the Full Core Stress Test step basically stops immediately without even completing one cycle.
