So I have managed to reach a bus speed of 250BCLK on my ASUS Maximus Impact VIII with 6700k cpu. :nerd: had to set these values: 1) PLL Termination Voltage 1.5v 2) Level 7 PLL Bandwidth 3) PCH core 1.2v it is awesome figures to look at having Bus speed running that high while your cpu and ram run high too! CPU @ 4.5ghz Multi 18x RAM @ 3000 mhz Bus speed @ 250 mhz here is screenshots
That cinebench score seems low? default clocked 6700K have better result, unless i'm missing something
Why overclock a K CPU by changing baseclock anyway? AFAIK there's no real benefit from increasing baseclock speed as such (like CineBench would suggest) and it may and usually will cause other issues. Cool bump tho, I'll give that, but pretty pointless.
Hello! wow! that's impressive!!! thx for sharing! What is the CPU voltage? Do we need the raise the bus speed to improve something? Is the data withing the board's components traveling faster? Since my RAM is running at it's specified speed using the XMP profile, I didn't feel like touching the bus speed yet... But should we try?
I found leaving most everything on auto works well for me and 200 BCLK should be easily doable. Just set the BCLK to 200, lower the multipliers until the cpu and cpu cache speeds are what they were before setting it to 200 and set the DRAM frequency back to what it was. The only thing you might need to fool with is the FCLK. FCLK x BCLK = system agent clock. You want to try and keep the system agent clock at 1000MHz but I've had it to 1600MHz with no ill effects. You can set the FCLK to 800MHz, 800 FCLK x 200 BCLK = 1600MHz system agent clock. As you can see there isn't a whole lot of performance gain but it did give a 3-4 FPS increase going from 100 BCLK to 300 BCLK.
