[?] i5 2500k - Going to 5+ Gigs ...

[GhaniKhan]

I have kept mine now on 4.0 for 24/7 and voltage is auto now is it good

[Ali Man]

Ok.

I enabled Overolt PLL and 1.475 Fixed Vcore

Running at 4.9GHz now.

I tried 1.480 / 5.0 but the computer won't boot.

I will test these settings for today and tomorrow I'll try 5.0 again

With the same setting's of 1.480V and 5Ghz, just change the CPU Load-Line Calibration to Level 1 and see what happen's, it really should be stable then.

i refrain from suggesting any settings agar kuch sar gaiya uska tou he will be after you

and imho that v core is too low 1.51 tak stable hoga with load

[Tech Reaper]

Is there any brand specific overclocking guide? Like I have MSI P67-G45 and I need a guide on how to OC on this motherboard!. I was thinking more of picture elaborated steps.

I actually owned the system that he's using, so its safe to say that I know exactly what I'am saying (Having tried and tested it myself)

and nah, 1.51V is too much just for 5Ghz (I really wouldn't go that far)

To be honest, I stabilized 5Ghz @ 1.475V ( but with level 5 load-line calibration, which mean's that the actual Volts going was pretty less due to the VDroop in Level 5, whereas in Level 1, it put's the Volt's as close to the Value that we set in the Fixed mode).

There isn't any proper review of the motherboard that you've mentioned and there isn't really either any proper "Overclocking guide"
or anything like that (apart from what people make themselves) is because Overclocking is something that is done on your
own risk and isn't encouraged by any manufacturer and warranty easily gets voided when taking this step.

However, different motherboard's model's would most probably have the same UEFI bios if they all belong to the same brand.
In this case, PG Member "badx" would be able to help you out more than anyone over here, as he's

- familiar with Overclocking,
- and also owns an MSI P67 mobo just like you do.

Find a tutorial for P67A-GD65, both are about equal with some bells and whistle. It also applies to P67A-GD53/GD55.

bro i will gladly help you out ..to the max i can but i WILL NOT take any responsibility if you fry your cpu while i help you OC it.contact me via pm when you cant get a higher clock and are stuck at a certain level. i will help you get the max i can

i followed the steps on youtube and OC it, 4.5ghz on 1.3vcore ya tu conform hai, even 1.28vcore par bhi check kia tha it was stable around 15minz in PRIME 95, i hit 4.8ghz with a little vcore over 1.3vcore or something like that, the temps were super awesome 68c maxed, it was the month of JUNE and my room was HOT!! but when i tried 5ghz so it was unstable, i tried 1.4vcore, when i got fail i just set it back to 4.5ghz.

try hitting your chip to 4.5ghz at 1.3vcore, it would be dam easy i think.

and yeah!! now i am pretty sure that the vcore was 1.3v

[Baghi]

4.4-4.5GHz is probably wall for any i5-2500k, majority of chips can do that on any semi-serious overclocker motherboard.

On auto Volt's, when i had my 2500K, it did 4.6Ghz @ 1.285V

So I guess your's isn't that impressive after all.
