See under multiplier it say 8-42? 8 is the lowest so 8 x 100mhz=800Mhz. Technically it should go down to 800mhz if you don't touch your computer for a while. While you are looking at this screen if you are running something like Photoshop and processing a photo or run a filter does this number change? Sorry if this is a bore to most of you but if Sushi has the patience I do want to learn more. I looked at some clips on YouTube yesterday and what I don' t understand at the moment is why I add 42 as a multiplier and see speeds I'd associate with 39 in my Core Temp screen. Yes, I could look for the setting to put it back to default but I am also using this as an exercise to educate myself about overclocking. They know I am a photographer and need speed at time - so they could easily have tweaked it a bit. They have been selling this brand for years so must know its capabilities.

You suggested that my vendors might have overclocked the PC when they sold it.

#GENERAL SETTINGS TAB INTEL EXTREME UTILITY HOW TO#
It has taken me some time to work out how to do screenshots of a BIOS. If you can take pictures of the screen where multiplier are (I don't know what it is called in your BIOS but in my Bios it is called AI screen) I could probably tell you what to change. This way voltage increases only then Turbo boost is on but not all the time. And if Turbo boost is enabled there should be an option to add extra voltage like maybe. What you need to do is to enable Intel Speedstep technology in your Bios. It seems to me that whoever sold you this computer set it for overclocking. If above screen always like that that means your computer always running at the highest speed.

Also, in rest state your speed should be around 1200Mhz. That would reset all multipliers and voltage to normal. The reset is usually located in the options somewhere on the right of the Bios screen. In the other thread somebody said to reset your bios to optimal. The lower the voltage you can get away with the lower the temperatures and also the lower your monthly electric bill. I have never touched the BIOS set up of this machine since I bought it.Īssuming I want reliability rather than extra speed what should I have the BIOS set for the CPU?Ībove screen above looks good but again I am not really sure about the voltage. I did not realise I was already overclocking. Even sometimes directing fan on top of the CPU cooler such a way that it blows some air on other components could make a difference. That is why case ventilation is also very important. And don't assume that motherboard manufacturer took care of it. Your motherboard has other components that could run hot and you wouldn't even know it. CPU running cool is not everything to make system stable. This is just an example because I am not sure what is standard voltage is.Īnd one more thing. For example if you are at 1.25v now set it to 1.275v and if you don't get stability go higher.

025v at the time until you get full stability. If you are still not running stable and your cooler is good now more likely your voltage is too low. As of right now you are running at 4.2Ghz on all cores. If you set CPU ratio to 35 then Turbo speed will increase to 39 when needed and more likely only on one core. The Turbo setting doesn't play any role at this point because you are already over the Turbo speed. For stability usually people dial Cache ration to about 300mhz less than CPU speed. At 42 multiplier and the bus at 100mhz you are running at 4.2Ghz. In another thread you said you are not overclocking but your CPU ratio indicates otherwise.

I have tried altering it and the Benchmarking in the Extreme Tuning software does not give a reliable pointer to whether 39 or 42 are better.Ĭan someone explain what this Cache is supposed to do and which is likely to be the right setting? The 'help' within the BIOS implies the Ratio should also be set to 42. Whilst looking at the CPU settings in the BIOS I saw:. I did it by booting into the BIOS settings - and, as I say, the problems seem to have gone away. I have been using the Intel Extreme Tuning software but I could not find out how to kill the Booster. I say minimised as they still happened once in a while and what seems to have cured them is disabling the Intel Turbo Booster. As some of you might have spotted I have been having BSOD problems and they seem to have been minimised by fitting a new CPU cooler.
