Hey guys. I have the 2600K on an ASRock P67 Extreme6. I never overclocked this thing until the Spectre and Meltdown fixes came out and they slowed me down signifigantly! I'm not an overclocker, I just buy the best when I do buy. I have the Noctua NH-D14 cooler and it is still among the best. Graphics are the XFX Black RX 480 which is clocked at 580 speeds 8 gb. Memory is G.Skill 1600 Snipers. It doesn't overclock but the timings did tighten a bit.
Okay overclocking the cpu on this thing... I'm not an overclocker. I tried unsuccessfully overclocking manual and have success using the ASRock easy OC settings. I'm at 4.6 and 4.8 even seemed stable for 2 hours on P95 but the max temps were 6 degrees from the max and I felt uncomfortable since that was last winter and it was cold in here.
I don't know how to do the offsets and I am certain the presets are throwing so much more voltage than needed and I should be able to at least hit 4.7 at cooler temps than I have now. 4.8 may be out of reach but I don't know for sure until I figure out how to do all the offsets and load line calibration on here.
Before anyone asks I have the latest beta BIOS which is really old but that's what I have on here.I do plan to upgrade to Ryzen but my single core speed at 4.6 is so much better that I think waiting for next gen Ryzen is best at the moment. That die shrink will up that and probably beat what I have without an overclock.
Money is short right now so I do what I can with what I have. Any help would be much appreciated.
