hi everyone.
just bought an i7 860 and was wondering how to go about overclocking it with the standard heat sink fan and 3 case fans.
I havent overclocked in over 8 years and im sure things have changed
My motherboard is a Gigabyte P55A ud3p
Ram: 4gb 1600 corsair dominator at 9 9 9 24 (it runs at 7 7 7 20 in the bios for some reason)
650w PSU
I used the Gigabyte overclock software and am sitting at 3.18ghz. I've read through a number forums and they say to keep volts and cpu temps below certain numbers.
This is what I have atm
3.15ghz speed
BCLK: 150mhz
VOLTAGE
cpu: 1.232
DRAM: 1.568v
Thats by using Easytune software provided by Gigabyte.
I havent touched anything in bios.
Any help and tips would be much appreciated
