Official ASUS P8P67 Series Overclocking Guide and Information

Is your error that it is swapping from 1600Mhz to 4500Mhz? It's supposed to do that! It's called SpeedStep lol

Yes that is true but that voltage is way too high for 4.5GHz.

Yeah I was just about to add that. On his other screenshot it shows that the has the vcore set manually to 1.350v which is why it is overvolting to 1.4v.

Tocusiek, set your vcore to offset mode as I said before!!

I'm not sure why you need 1.32v for 4.5Ghz. I can run 4.6Ghz at 1.30v and less.
Click to expand...

You forget that every CPU is different. Some cpu's need 1.35v load for stability at 4.5 ghz. Mine needs 1.238v, and that may wind up rising as the CPU "breaks in." (or degrades). Previous 2600k needed 1.28v for 4.5 ghz.

That's like you coming here and saying "Why can't you do 5.5 ghz? I can do 5.6 ghz at 1.55v."

/facepalm
 
Yes for sure use + offset as he said and run Prime for a hour or so. If you don't get any errors lower the + offset one notch and run Prime again till you get errors and you will find the sweet spot..:cool: If you get a error right off the bat up it a notch.

As with mine I went up to 0.080 and failed so I changed LLC to Medium and + offset 0.040 and was able to be stable. As above all chips will not clock the same , It's just the luck of the draw If you get a great one or not.

This is what it took for me , and I tried all night long different configurations.. My old board for some reason did much better than the new B3 , lol when it worked..

Stable 5 hours Prime. 1.32 max on vcore , 51-53c max on 2 cores.

I think my stability issues are caused by my Dominator GT , So I have some G.SKILL Ripjaws X F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL and Vengeance CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 sitting around.. Going to try them and see If I can hit on the settings you listed silkysean.. As 4.8 GHz is where I want to be and I cant get there as of yet. Offset + 0.125 BSOD right after I started Prime.

So, the other night I decided its time to see what my new i5 2500k and P8P67 Pro with a Scythe Mugen 2 on top were capable of, it was bound to happen. After reading this wonderful post figured I'd try the extreme auto in the Aisuit and ill be danged if it didn't come out at 50x 103 my only issue with this is it was running at 1.55v.

Figuring 1 ghz of oc was more than enough I've been trying to refine a 47x of for everyday. Have LLC set to ultra high VRM to 350 and Phase Control set to Optimized all else at auto, I've decided to go the route of Offset voltage but at + auto again I was seeing over 1.5v when loaded. I now have it offset -0.050 and am now at a happy 1.35v average under load occasionally going up to 1.37v.

My question is how odd is my case with the offset voltage I see lots of people using +0.030 to get to 1.4v, I had to go to -0.02 to keep it at or under 1.4v.

Before I forget to mention I'm running a B3 board with the current BIOS. Also I'm seeing 62°c temps.
 
A lot of people are having problems with offsets overvolting like that on the asus boards.

You have to turn LLC off to use the offset otherwise it adds more volts on top of the manual vcore.

1.33 Max on VCore stayed at 1.32 85% of the time , Max Temps 56c on one core 52c was average on Water..

From what I've seen my chip needs 1.33v on max 100% load to keep it from BSOD after it goes past 1 hour with Prime. At 1.32v Max 100% load after a hr or so BSOD 00XXX124 ,Your mileage may vary.

http://3dmark.com/3dm06/15468986 took 1.55v to clear the CPU bench- temp touched 80c. <-----don't try this at home kids

My sweet spot is 5.0 (100x50) -max core volts under EXTREME load is 1.4016 ...offset is +005.

Ya know that's what's weired.... I used the +115 offset but my CPUZ shows what I posted. 1.368 :confused:


Also, on the max vcore voltage. I know of lots of people running at 1.5v and 5ghz or more for months now!
Click to expand...

Gah, my previous 4.8ghz overclock is failing on Prime now. Very strange. I'm at +140 with LLC off now, gets me to 1.368v like you, and trying from there.
EDIT: That seems to be the sweet spot. 2 hours Prime stable is good enough for me. Hitting 80 degrees though, but I wont be using it 24/7!! I've ammended my settings on page 13 to reflect.

Hey silkysean are you using the B3 Board yet are you still on the B2 ? As for some reason there's a difference between the two for me anyway.. For example my B2 I could do 4.5 @ 1.31v Max , B3 needs 1.33-1.34 at least to pass prime for hrs.

Thanks for all your Info Mate , It's hard to find any new in put on these B3 Overclocks at the moment. I'm still trying alot of configurations myself so I will keep posting my results also.

Failed right off the bat for me , I started Prime and 00x0000101 BSOD Back to the drawing board for me..:mad:

BSOD Codes
0x124 = add/remove vcore or QPI/VTT voltage (usually Vcore, once it was QPI/VTT)
0x101 = add more vcore
0x50 = RAM timings/Frequency add DDR3 voltage or add QPI/VTT
0x1E = add more vcore
0x3B = add more vcore
0xD1 = add QPI/VTT voltage
&#8220;0x9C = QPI/VTT most likely, but increasing vcore has helped in some instances&#8221;
0X109 = add DDR3 voltage
0x0A = add QPI/VTT voltage
 
I haven't found any stable settings without turning off that LLC. I really don't like the LLC. I have it on medium, but some random crazy spikes happens. I would recommend leaving the HWMonitor always ON for temps recording, and you will be surprised what you are going to see it. I once saw 1.67V. It never happens with prime or linx, but usually while gaming.

Yes mine is set to Medium as I just cant get any stability with it off no matter what offset voltage I use..
 
I found that with LLC on I get much lower idle voltages. I set LLC on low (25%), offset to +0.030 and Additional Turbo Voltage to 0.080. My 2600K idles at a voltage of 1.016V and peaks at 1.376. With LLC off and higher offset and no additional turbo voltage it idles at about 1.1V with same peak voltage at the same clock setting (4.8GHz).
 
Thanks for the advice guys after reading a few pages before my post I started to get more of an idea where I should be settings wise.

Currently at:
47x multi
LLC to Regular
VRM Manual 350
Phase Control to Optimized
Offset voltage - 0.005

Memory at 1600 8-8-8-24 2T 1.50v

All else auto/default

Ive gotten 2 hours stable on AIDA64 next is Prime. According to HWMonitor my loaded voltage is hovering between 1.30v and 1.32v peaking once at 1.34 with 62'c temps

A few differences Ive noted between LLC of Reg. vs. Ultra High is that my idle voltage on reg bottoms at .99v while Ultra would go down to .91v. Also my average temp is about the same between ~1.31v at LLC Reg Offset - 0.005 and ~1.36v at LLC Ultra Offset -.050.

I'm still on B2 at the moment. Asus aren't sending out the B3's in the UK until the end of March. I'm starting to think I should stick with the B2!!

I also been trying Additional Turbo Voltage and with LLC on Regular (25%), offset to +0.030 and Additional Turbo Voltage to 0.180 one core failed worker stopped. went up to 0.192 with 00x0000124 bsod.. No luck for me and I seen some crazy voltage spikes , 1.44v +..
 
Confused as to what i should set for offset.. 0.190? I'm running 1.395 stable for 14 hours prime95 so far, with all settings to extreme, vram at 350 and llc on extreme..HT on and turbo on. (1.385 resulted in bsod 124)

Would it be 0.190? With LLC on regular as the offset, this doesnt sound right to me.

Try it and see, though I think 0.190 is too high for 1.395v. Try 0.165 and see what the voltages are like.

thanks,

So basically set it, start prime95 blend and just casually check the voltages over time via cpuv.. if it goes above 1.395 then lower it down i guess eh?

Using the Additional Turbo Voltage and CPU Voltage Offset example for 48x multi...

Old board: +0.005V offset, +.184 turbo VID
New board: +0.030V offset, +.192 turbo VID

For the Life of me I cant get anything stable with LLC on Regular , I'm using Medium .. The above are a starting point as I'm not able to stay stable for over 1 hr with any configuration I run . If your stable then lower the Additional Turbo Voltage till it fails.

Is your PLL on?
 
I've switched my testing tools , IntelBurn Test v2 2.50 & AIDA64 Extreme and I'M error free , Passed no issues... Memtest Passed just fine.;)

1.30v max on load , 56c max on load with IntelBurn Test man that cooks the temps more than any others and I see It uses 96% of the ram while on max. Now why is Prime giving me errors everytime ?:confused:

I'm 15 hours stable on prime95 blend so far, with offset mode

Right now, with full load i'm at 1.368 volts, with an ambient temp of 22-23C (72-74F) my max temp has been 84C on the h70 with stock fans, one of which i have a resistor on, though right now its at 78C.

Now, yesterday, i had manual settings and 1.395 going on, stable 14 hours, then around hour 16 i had a bsod 124.. so since then i put in these offset settings.. shall see if i survive 24 hours like this.. cant see how though, since the max volts are less than the 1.395 so far?

Is there a way using real temp or cpuz to see the voltages over time on a graph or listing?
Can offset be used at 5.0ghz.. ie: since LLC is set to regular in this case?

I'm also at 1.368v for 4.8ghz but my offset is .140, how is it that yours is 0.125? The differences with my settings are that I have PLL on, VRM set to 350, Phase and Duty control on Extreme and Intel Virtualisation off. If you do that, does it decrease your voltages? I'm curious now.
 
Just for the helluva it-

If you have a 4pin and 8pin atx12v CPU lines off your power supply try switching what you're using now with the other line.
I'm curious to see if there's a difference with your volt requirements to the CPU.


for your reference, i can run prime all day long (without error) at 5 ghz and never get hotter than 67 to 68c - 1.408
