Want to overclock gigabyte CPU board processing Intel i5 processor for high frequency

[Lancelot Travasso]

I have a GB GA Z68-UD4 CPU board utilizing Intel i5 processor. I need to clock it up to frequency of 4.5 GHz. Can someone advice me about what cares I should take for successful overclocking?

Go to increased central processing unit settings and set entire 4 turbos to 45x settings. Disable central processing unit spread spectrum and PLL overvoltage. Adjust CPU power limit to 120 % with LLC adjust to High and voltage offset and central processing unit dvid to +0.050 V. Set qpi/vtt on auto of 1.05v and set dram voltage to 1.35v. The random access memory speed should be around 1600 MHz. Adjust CPU multi to value of 45 and bclk to 100. Throughout whole overclocking function will restart many numbers of times. You should not care about it as it is common thing about overclocking process.

After overclocking, your system will not log off or restart perfectly for the first time. You will require to switch it off through disconnecting the power cord. You must expect before turning on your computer as overclocking function must have heated the inner of your system. Wait for 15 min for letting your system to cool down and then start your PC again. In many rare cases, one may require to reset the CMOS settings. For this only pull out the CMOS battery and attach it in again.

Many individual have observed that their BIOS settings were not preserved later overclocking. This is caused due to failure of boot loop in the function. The boot loop failure troubles is mostly found in CPU boards of GB and no guaranteed answer to this trouble has been improved. If you are thinking of flashing the BIOS setting with the new BIOS, then it would not be helpful. I have tested it many times but it never helped.
