Hey friends please help me out!
Ok… so I'm going to be as detailed as possible! Obviously I'm a noob and I'm super lost lol! I'm trying to over clock my CPU to a stable 4.1mhz-4.2mhz I prefer 4.2mhz I will start with my specs first to give you guys an idea what I'm working with.
MOBO: Asus Sabertooth 990fx
CPU: FX-8320 (clocked at 4.0)
COOLER: Corsair H55 water cooler (please tell me if this cooler can't accomplish 4.2mhz)
GPU: EVGA GTX 760 2gb (SC)
PSU: Corsair 750watt gold
OS: Windows 7 Premium
CASE FANS: 5
Alright with that ^ out the way this is my problem... Please go easy like dump stupid easy no abbreviations PLEASE! Unless they are terms that can clearly be seen on my motherboard. Like CPU……lol right now as we speak my CPU is sitting at 4.2mhz with 1.26v I noticed that when I went from 1.45v to 1.26v heat when down A LOT! But I'm still running very hot! I ran prim95 for 10-15min and already was at like 65c-67c I just found out that the more volts you push the more heat you get! I'm telling you guys I'm new at this I'm not joking =) but I think for some reason 1.26v is very low and it might affect performance! So I don't want to keep lowering the volts! Unless it's a good thing?? Another thing when over clocking do I only focused on 2 things? CPU multiplier and voltages? Like what are NB voltage and all that other extra stuff??... I have disabled all the power saving stuff and AMD turbo crap and so on... I've done a lot of reading but nothing is dummy proof everything has abbreviations I don't understand... Please if someone is kind enough to give me a break down in your own words that would be easy to understand I would really appreciate that! One last thing I promise. I'm volts are at 1.26 and still hot everything else is on auto... Maybe something else has too much voltage causing the overheating? Like NB which I don't know what that is but noticed a lot of people talking about it in over clocking forms... Thanks for ready and all the help!
