Adaptive vs Manual

This is true you can also overclock non k chips unless intel already put the microcode in to stop it

People were getting non K 6700 and getting them to 4.5 off of the Blck crazy and on motherboards that really don't support oc lol

I read this on toms hardware

lol here it is a guide lmao wow wow


GIGABYTE Z170 Non-K Overclocking Guide - Overclocking.Guide

Still need to read the link, but to do non K you use the BCLK I believe.

Yep!
That works great on Skylakes, because on Z170A's it doesn't affect the PCIe lanes.

Until now changing the bClk affected the speeds of everything in and around the CPU: not just the CPU cores and the memory, but also the clock frequency of the PCI-Express bus. The latter part formed a large bottleneck, since the PCI-Express controller of Haswell/Broadwell and previous generations stopped working when it was overclocked more than about 5%. To somewhat compensate for this Intel introduced baseclock straps with Haswell, which were multipliers for the PCI-Express bus, making a 125 MHz or 167 MHz bClk or minus 5% bClk possible.

Now going to dial in some off-set values and test as solarstarshinessuggests

Report back soon

I thought they blocked it with intel updates

Some results from my experiment with offset....

Adaptive v = 1.300 Offset v = -0.010 Voltage = 1.290 test with IBT(std) = PASS Temps = ************

Adaptive v = 1.300 Offset v = -0.020 Voltage = 1.280 test with IBT(std) = PASS Temps = 66 68 68 67

Adaptive v = 1.290 Offset v = -0.010 Voltage = 1.280 test with IBT(std) = PASS Temps = 67 69 69 67

Adaptive v = 1.285 Offset v = -0.010 Voltage = 1.275 test with IBT(std) = PASS Temps = 67 67 68 67




How does these voltages look to you? Still got more tests to run

cheers

Looking real good worf
