Yep thats why I´m asking. I have seen more OC videos including Tech YES City You mentioned and I was really confused because they both have different settings and different explanations so still I don´t know where is the truth. From my experiences well known Youtubers mostly don´t&nbsp;pass on good knowledges - often is very hard to find someone who give really good advices which are corrects.</div><div><br></div><div>&nbsp;3.9GHz at 1.3V is very nice i suppose - You probably won the lottery :D. Did You try run the CPU at 4GHz? Which voltage was stable for this clock? I suppose if You had increase the voltage at 1.4V&nbsp;it started to be disadvantageous. What voltage should be maximum for continuous operation in Your opinion?</div><div><br></div><div>Yeah I know that. Firsty get the Windows installed, then the drivers, then flashing bios and then start some OC. But anyway thx for warning.</div><div><br></div><div>Hmm OK. Maybe I will try all 4 sticks first time and if the possible lower RAM speed will affects CPU performance i will try only 2 sticks.</div><div><br></div><div>Well I guess I will try multiple options for good OC performance. Hope I won´t screw anything since I watch the values. Thx!</div>]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="https://forum.asrock.com/member_profile.asp?PF=6897">Pixen</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 6175<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 24 Sep 2017 at 8:09am<br /><br />Hello everyone,<div><br></div><div>So my new pc components are on the way and I spent a lot of time searching for the "perfect" build for me (see the components in signature). However right now I´m dealing with question about overclocking etc. I have been a laptop user for the last 8 years so I´m begginer in the overclocking - zero experiences so far - I just watched/read some tips etc but still without practical experience cause my parts will just arrive soon. Will You guys please help me a little bit with theme about OC and what to avoid?</div><div><br></div><div>Well first of all I mainly watched the YouTube videos from "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrwObTfqv8u1KO7Fgk-FXHQ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Actually Hardcore Overclocking</a>", read some topics here and on overclock forum&nbsp;but I still don´t understand a lot of things.</div><div><br></div><div>1) So first of all - the BIOS update. I definitely don´t want to start some OC with some old BIOS version so I searched a little and maybe upgrading at 3.0 version will be the best option - what do you think? I read this version should be mostly fine without any problems. To avoid bricking my MoBo i will definitely go with instant flash - i bought specially for this&nbsp;SanDisk Extreme 16GB which should be one of the best flash drives on the market. Yes i will set defalut settings in bios first before flashing and yes I will take care of the power supply of the pc + be following the instructions.</div><div><br></div><div>2) how many RAM stick have in slots: Well first I wanted to purchase single kit of 2x8 GB Trident Z 3466 CL16 however in the end i went with 4 sticks - 32GB total. I read that more sticks caused some problems with RAM frequency but it should be fine moreless with the newest bioses - what do You think? Should i put first only two sticks into A2+B2 slots or it will be just fine to insert all of them?</div><div><br></div><div>well if there exist some current OC guide for taichi with a lots of explanation which i couldn't find, i will be grateful for the link, otherwise:</div><div><br></div><div>3) OC setting - well there things start to be a little complicated. Everyone use different setting/different parts such as cpu/ram etc. Well I just now that to get better CPU OC results (3.8 - 4GHz) i have to increase voltage of the CPU. I just don´t kow where to start and where to end before the system stops being stable and what to change if there will be stability problems (like when lower the voltage etc) - well what should be max voltage setting for continuous performance? I guess 1.4V should be max limit, maybe less, maybe little more.</div><div><br></div><div>Next what does the APU/PCIE frequency change in OC mode in bios menu? Will it be just enough if I set this according the "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrwObTfqv8u1KO7Fgk-FXHQ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Actually Hardcore Overclocking</a>" videos? Mostly i want to know what all i need to care about while OC and what should stay taboo for me :D.</div><div><br></div><div>For the ram sticks: what timing and frequency set in beginning? Should i stay with defalut memory speed? Like 3466MHz with 16-18-18-38 timings or lower it on 3200 on 16-16-16-36 or something like that? What about the voltage? Should i set it up on 1.375V/1.4 or keep the basics 1.35V? Well i know having set XMP profile is necessary.</div><div><br></div><div>Voltage mode: I guess i should keep it on stable</div><div><br></div><div>CPU Vcore voltaxe: Fixed</div><div><br></div><div>CPU load-line calibrtion: Well I´m not really sure, just keep it on lvl 3 should be the best? I know he definitely explained this in the videos but since I´ m new in this it is a little hard to fully understand all features right now.</div><div><br></div><div>Well there is more couple options which should be set to Auto i suppose except DRAM Voltage which should i set according to frequency and timings for the RAM I guess</div><div><br></div><div>In the advance tab there is again a lot of options which I guess will be fine just set some values first time and then i shouldn´t worry about this anymore.</div><div><br></div><div>Anyway I tried to search in discussions for some tips etc but mostly ppls was talking about just several things and problems. I didn´t saw any screenshots with settings etc so I thought it would be better to ask directly because a lot of discussions were irrelevant to me (well at least for now). Thanks to everyone who want to help me just a bit and sorry for my bad english. Have a nice day!</div><div><br></div><div>EDIT: The OS will be Windows 10 Pro and sure I will install each driver as needed before flashing BIOS.</div><span style="font-size:10px"><br /><br />Edited by Pixen - 24 Sep 2017 at 8:26am</span>]]>
