3570k/GA-Z77X-UD5H OC Settings

[Ken429]

I'm back playing with the UD5H MB with a 3570K CPU. Based on the attached spreadsheet does this look like the normal 3570K or did I get a good one? I haven't gone beyond 4.5GHz but it looks like it has more potential. One strange thing that I did not experience with a 3770K is if the CPU Voltage is set to Normal and the DVID is less than +0.015 and the LLC is set to Medium or below the system goes nuts and gives me BSOD and even hangs in the BIOS.

Oops, I forgot to change the spreadsheet Threads to 4 for the 3570K.

it will hang if the cu voltage is too low

1.2v for 4.5ghz is decent imo,doubt you would get stability with anything less

One other anomaly I ran into with this MB, I had the 3770K in it before I switched to the ASRock OC Formula and the BIOS remembered the 3770K settings? This caused the voltage to be +1.30 with the +0.015 DVID setting and a whole bunch of other strange things to happen! I had to do a Clear CMOS to get the BIOS to act correctly with the 3570K installed. I suppose that should have been expected?!

I think it does remember the settings till you clear cmos
