    Hi,

    I just recently bought the Corsair H70 for OC purpose. However, I don’t know how to OC my system.

    I’m currently using:

    Motherboard:P55A-UD4

    Rams: 16 GBs rams

    CPU: Core i7, 2.8 Ghz

    gfx card: ATI FireGL v.5600

    Any directions / tips / videos is much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Don’t you think the cpu voltage is a little too high?

    @LaczupakabraPL dont think the h50 is loud… by the way he cools better than the noctua d14h or something like that i guess….

    @mixmaxdix Go with one of the gigabyte p55 boards and don’t buy the h50… is so laud! H70 or Noctua air cooler is the way to go. Dominator ram… hmmm better buy some ocz or g.skill if you take gigabyte board and first take 4gigs, test it (OC) and than try 8. Good luck

    @LaczupakabraPL i am planning in buying either the i7 860 or the i5 760 and overclock it… The cooler that i´m planning using is a corsair h50.
    Now i would like a good motherboard to go with that would give me a good stable overclock with usb3… it doesnt need to support sli or crossfire…
    What would you recomend?
    thankyou

    by that way : the rest of the specs, cm cosmos 1000, cm silent pro m600, gtx460 768mb, corsair dominator 8 gigs…

    @blak2650

    85c is way to high i suggest you get a watercooler

    30c idle here and max stressed 55c

    also i would check if your cooler is mounted correctly your 85c is way to high

    I have the same mobo and cpu. My RAM is 4GB DDR3 1600 @ 1.65 volts. When i use oc genie i only reach 3.41Ghz . So can i just copy your manual oc settings to get a higher cpu frequency ?

    YOU ONLY HAVE TO Adjust CPU Base Frequency and then check how warm your cpu gets when it reach 100%

    its the same company i think, i got a set o ripjaws running in my rig when u first pop em in they run at 1333 but they can be safely be speed up to 1600 i have a p55m-gd45 there is an option in the bios that will automatically speed that up if u have an i7 i dont think it works well with i5s i cant remember what the option is called though. oddly enough i found out about it after reading about some guy complain that the option over clocked his ram
