Hi,
Can anyone advise how the QPI Link Speed relates to QPI Frequency on a GA-EX58-UD3R please?
Basically am a complete newbie to OC'ing and would like to overclock a Core i7 920 (DO Stepping) from the stock 2.66GHz to 3.8GHz.
Understand the following (please correct as necessary)....
1). CPU multiplier: 20x.
2). QPI Frequency: 3.8GHz (this is where the confusion sets in as I've no idea what to enter in the BIOS as it has 'QPI Link Speed' settings instead of QPI Frequency settings (at a guess there is some relationship however)).
3). DRAM Frequency: Maximum speed of installed RAM (1600MHz).
4). CPU voltage: 1.275V (possibly a little different however not exceeding 1.4V).
5). DRAM Bus Voltage: 1.64V - 1.66V (cannot recall what options there are).
6). CPU Spread Spectrum: Disabled
7). PCI-E Spread Spectrum: Disabled
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
