Hello. I recently got an i5 2500k and I thought I'd try my hand at overclocking. Following advice from this forum I started at 43 "All core" multiplier (ASRock z77 Extreme4 motherboard) and 1.3V. This worked out fine and no crashes in Prime95. Then I went up to 45 and 1.3v which resulted in a BSOD after about 10 minutes. I lowered to 44 @ 1.290v and got a BSOD there too.
Now I'm back at 43 @ 1.290v stable and I can't figure out what the problem is. Also what intel features should I disable in the BIOS? Should I disable turbo?
Thanks!
EDIT: Running 4.5GHz @ 1.325v right now with Prime95 running. Also does this: http://i.imgur.com/p2bnq.png mean that the voltage isn't 1.325v? Why does it say that?
