Hey everyone,
This is my first overclock. I reviewed the sticky on how to overclock an i5 2500k.
Motherboard is Gigabyte GA-Z68A-D3H-B3, and I have the coolermaster 212+ hyper, and 4 case fans.
I tried enabling and disabling all of the features listed in the sticky. Unfortunately Gigabyte doesn't have all of the same names as whatever motherboard he was using, so I was only able to modify about half.
After modifying the settings, I was able to increase the clock to 4.3 ghz. 4.4 would not boot. After scanning several other sites for information and tweaking more, I was no longer able to boot at 4.3 ghz.
I figured I did something wrong so I restored the optimal settings option in the BIOS and just changed the clock to 4.3 ghz.
So I have factory BIOS settings and just changed the clock. It's running fine for right now. But I would like the get it to 4.5 ghz.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
