I've been trying to overclock my 2500k for the past few days. It autotunes to 4.4-4.5ghz easily. I can manually tune it to 4.5 without much of a problem.
However, it almost always fails a prime95 torture test regardless if I did the tuning or the autotune did. Temperatures are definitely not an issue, It's rarely gone above 50C at highest load. I don't think it's my cooling. I'm using a ft02 with a noctua dh-14 cooler.
I've been fiddling around with several of the asus settings but none seems to help. processor voltage is set to 1.35, cpu pll is at 1.8125, and i've fiddled with the vigi+drm with different settings. None seem to help.
Does anyone have some insight on how to achieve a high stable clock? I'd like to hit 4.7-5if possible.
I'd love to know what settings you've set to successfully oc it. I know not all cpus are alike so it could be just mine.
Thanks!
