Read a few Core i7 920 overclocking guides, it really doesn't matter if it's the i7 920 as the i7 980X overclocks in the same manner. If you want a little quick overclock, just up the multiplier to 27 to get an approximate 3.6GHz overclock. If you have any extra questions or problems afterwards, ask here.

I'm just wondering though, do you really need to overclock your i7 980X? I'd have thought 12 threads of 3.33GHz would be able to rip application to shreds. Just a question...

Hi,

I need to check with you if i want to up my multipliers for CoreI7-980X achieve a 3.6GHz, do i need to 'disable' my Intel (R) SpeedStep (TM) Tech and also the Intel (R) Turbo Mode tech. <-- (Asus rampage III extreme)

If I want to maintain my speed to be always 3.6GHz. By disabling 'SpeedStep Tech' and 'Turbo Mode Tech' will I be able to achieve a constant 3.6GHz with my CoreI7-980X.
