The Ultimate CPU Overclocking Guide!
So I recently bought a Core i5-2500K from Newegg for a little over $200. So its a pretty cheap processor that can be overclocked. With my MSI P67 motherboard I kept the default voltages and 100MHz system bus but moved up the multiplier all the way up to 45. That makes the systems processor run at 4.5GHz which is quite a bit quicker than the default 3.3GHz clock speed. I test the systems stability using IntelBurnTest. I set up the program to use most of the RAM and run the CPU at 100% load on all four cores. The maximum temperature that the CPU can handle is 98 degrees Celsius but the highest temperature reached in about five minutes of 100% load is just 92 degrees. But at idle the processor is at just about 50 degrees. So the 4.5GHz overclock is a stable overclock and best of all is ran off of just the stock Intel cooler that came in the Core i5s box. So you dont need anything but a P67 motherboard and a Core i5-2500K processor to do this. With a custom air or water cooler the processor could probably be overclocked to way over the 4.5GHz speed at maybe 5.5GHz or further without any problems. So this just shows you how much a CPU a little over $200 can perform stock. Blog: zlstudios.net Twitter twitter.com Main Channel: youtube.com
