Thread: Overclock Intel I seven 940 to four Ghz.

I am confronting a big question with Intel i7 940 CPU. The official range for overclocking supplied by intel is dissimilar. I only have a question that can i overclock thi sprocessor at 4 ghz.delight rpovide approximately views considering this.

Adjust your vcore to 1.35v, your mem timings and voltages to its default values, mem ratio to 2:8 if 1600mhz or 2:6 if 1333, adjust vtt to within .5v of your ram... I hold mine at 1.28v, adjust your uncore freq to twice ur dimm freq... Now hold raising bclk untill it goes unstable... At this point you will demand to up the voltages more

Your rig lead tier and can be an great gamer for 3-4 years with a few GPU grades. Do you actually demand some other x2... is functioning hurting that badly? If it was me I'd stick with the individual x2 [or go 1/2 path and CF it with a individual HD4870 1GB] and then go all out on a match of DX11 GPUs when they come out.

I exactly don't assure much of a cause for you to promote your system, it's so soon a killer rig. This would exclusively be a discretionary promote for you...i.e., you don't demand an i7, you only require 1 actually bad! So in your shoes, I would wait...a year from now you will have more selections to select from. Competition and time will construct costs lower, which would offset any perceived pain from becoming less resale value from your current components.
