    Guide for custom stepped i7 2600K "Per Core" overclocking = extra performance!

    duceduc, Try setting your 2600K CPU to no more than 4.5Ghz across "All Cores" and leaving most of the BIOS settings set to Auto. If Windows still won't boot then all you can do is to reset all BIOS settings back to their defaults, change one setting at a time, and test booting into Windows...

Further stress testing with an Asus P8P67 Pro motherboard has caused new BSODs under 1502 (using the settings in this guide), but which worked fine and stable under 1305. It may seem 1502 wants higher voltagages along with...

    What this per core overclock is basically doing is replicating the default Intel Turbo Mode behaviour as per the CPU running at stock speeds. You'd be aware that at stock settings, a 2600K runs at 3.4Ghz but can Turbo up to 3.8Ghz for mostly single core apps. What I'm basically doing is...

    Hi MarkyM, Thanks for your reply. To address your questions, Hyperthreading remains turned on. You are correct that some benchmark apps spread the "single core" load over multiple cores, such as Cinebench 11.5 (and also Prime95), when only testing single threads. What this does in practice is...
