Everything Else / Re: cpu thermal throttle

« on: June 28, 2012, 04:48:34 pm »

i ran  occt   the strees test and in bsoded      i noticed it suffered from v-droop   so i  disabled thermal throttle     and upped  the  v-core  to 1.38 

 retested with  occt  and prime  95  for about 30 minutes each and so far so  good     but i did noticed 1  thing though  at everything stock  the cpu  scored  7.5  in the windows experience   after  getting it stable  and the upped v-core  voltage   i re-ran the windows experience  and got  7.7 for the cpu
   so i think il  leave it this way   thanks  shane

yeah shane il  leave that at auto for safety sake  but you said  your overclocked to 4.2   a 8150 max turbo  is 4.2   a 8120 is 4    does that number scale up  when you increase the base clock  1 more thing did you install the Microsoft  hot fixes  i hear it only gains about 2 percent better   thanks

 hi shane i meant  the fan has a 3 speed switch  is it ok to hook it up to the motherboard header   the bois    has   a fan speed  option  its has a   uefi  bois   because  motherboard has 4 fan headers  kinda want to plug them into  it if it wouldnt hurt  motherboard by doing so  thanks

  hi shane ive got  a motherboard  with 4 fan headers  2   of the pre-installed fans  have a 3 speed switch  but the motherboards  can control the speed   so should i plug them into the motherboard an set them to the highest speed  or should i just hook them  straight into the  psu   thanks
