Re: [Success 10.7.2] Z68MA-D2H-B3, i5 2500k, 8Go 1600Mhz, HD5450
Yes, I'm currently using the stock cooler @4,1Ghz, with a good case airflow, ambiant temperature is 31° according to iStats.
I just changed the multiplier is the BIOS, 41x. nothing else. in my smbios, i added 4100Mhz as you can see there :
my computer is blazing fast and it runs about 12 hours a day for two month now !
bragur said:Hey there, thanks for sharing this. Am I right to think you're using the stock cooler @4,1GHz? Would you mind sharing how you went about overclocking? Also, how did you get better results (geekbench I assume) by editing the smbios?
Cheers
