  • i5 2500k vcore option is not available

    Ok so the problem that i have is that i cant find the vcore in any of the bios categories so when i try to overclock the cpu to 4.5 without modifing the vcore my pc doesnt boot.
    Now the cpu is at 4.0 ghz with only the multiplier modified.
    Can you please help me, tell me how to modifiy the vcore or how to make the option appear?
    Im gonna show you some pictures with the bios options.

    First,you got rev. 1.0 or 2.0 ?
    Did you update to latest BIOS?

    Edit:

    Ohhhh,I see,you have F3 BIOS
    Update to F7 BIOS.
    But,not sure if your mobo should display Vcore (you can still use DVID).

        Also check you CPU socket for bent pins.
        Did ET6 (Touch BIOS) utility display Vcore?

            et6 shows that my vcore is 1.410 thats waaaay to much i think
            but AIDA 64 extreme edition shows 1.308 wich should be all right for a 4.0 ghz oc
            but i dont know wich program to belive

                      Unfortunately, your motherboard doesn't have the option to change vcore.

                      As long as the motherboard in question is the one still in your PC Specs.

                          To overclock with dvid you just adjust the Dynamic Vcore(DVID) setting either up or down.

                          According to your pics you uploaded its showing 1.320v in BIOS with a 4.0ghz overclock. I would guess you could use a negative DVID and get it stable at a much lower voltage.

                          You will just have to play with a little and see what's stable and what isn't.

                            what about for a 4.5ghz oc?

                              There is no way of knowing what voltage your chip will take to hit 4.5ghz until you try it for yourself.

                              Some can do it at lower voltages and some require much more. It trial and error. Just try and start at around 1.35v, run prime95 for a while, then back the voltage down if its stable.

                              If it crashes, add voltage until its stable.

                              As far as safe voltages, I am not sure. You will find some people claiming 1.38v is max safe, and then some will say 1.52v. Who knows.
