I am trying to overclock my system:
Motherboard: Asus X99 Deluxe U3.1
CPU: Intel Core i7-5960X
RAM: Corsair Dominator® Platinum Series 128GB (8 x 16GB) DDR4 DRAM 2800MHz C14 Memory Kit (CMD128GX4M8B2800C14)
Video Card: 2x (Dual) Nvidia GTX 980 Ti + SLI bridge
Storage1: Intel SSD 750 PCIe SSD NVMe 1.2 TB
Storage2: Samsung SSD 850 EVO
To do that, I am using “ASUS Dual Intelligent Processors 5 V1.02” program under Win 10. It does automated overclocking and stores the best found values in the BIOS.
The best found values are:
(1) 100 x 43 = 4300
(2) 125 x 35 = 4375
Which both result in similar Geekbench score of around 29K to 30K.
Config (2) does not work properly as the system then sees only 96 GB of RAM out of 128 GB.
When I boot into Hackintosh, however, the Geekbench scores for (1) and (2) are
(1) 19K
(2) 25K
To me, (1) looks as if it is not overclocked at all; and (2) looks like it is overclocked but only partially. Anyway, (2) is not useful because the system again sees only 96GB out of 128GB RAM.
Can someone suggest how to do proper overclocking so that the Hackintosh also shows 30K like Win 10?
Just in case, to make a Hackintosh for 5960X I was following these instructions:

and my boot command options are:
npci=0x2000 debug=0x14e dart=0 kext-dev-mode=1 nvda_drv=1
