SuperMG Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Hello. I can't overclock this CPU to 4GHz and beyond. It's an unlocked 8 cores CPU for the X79 chipset. My laptop has dual fan and good heatsink for that CPU. It has the PremaMod V5 bios. I use the BIOS overclock ratio, it only shows 6 cores instead of 8. So I overclock all cores to 42x, 43x and even 50x but I'm stuck at 39x for single thread and 38x for multi-thread. The current limit is 165A and power limit is 200W. I use 2x330W PSU. I tried to use Intel XTU 4.1 and 5.1 but they all throw a blue screen of death "iocbios2.sys". Why can't I get 4.0GHz and above like everyone else?
