So I was watching this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xt62JyJo1iU video and there's some stuff he was talking about that I'm just not familiar with in the BIOS. Such as Strap, BUS speed, etc. I know basic overclocking, but most of the time when I'm in the BIOS I'm tiptoeing around to make sure I don't screw something up. So anyone know of a good source/place to learn about all that stuff without actually going and messing with it all. Like maybe a sticky type thread or youtube vid. I have an Asus Maximus VII fyi. Thanks.
I don't, sorry. On the topic of that video, is it just me, or did that dude get a little cro-magnon with the thermal compound? Like a toothpaste-sized squirt down the center upon which he set the cooler, pressed down, and secured in place?
Would of course be quite handy. Although, I think most people get to learn what they now by doing, tinkering, searching for everything all over the web. Haven't come across a compendium of sorts, sorry. (And to be fair, most bios features tend to stay around for long enough time to sooner or later get to know them, at least on the surface.)
The ROG forums are usually a good place to start. They often have good overclocking guides, with explanations of at least some of the extended bios settings.
