OCing 7800x on x299 Extreme 4

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Anyone have a guide for OC'ing this particular motherboard? The generic Skylake-X articles I've seen don't have the specific bios entries that the Extreme 4 uses, so makes finding what I need to set to what all the more .... muddy.

For example: CACHE frequency... I don't see it listed as such in the BIOS. 

Thanks in advance.

	The Cache is run off Bclk like the cpu, and the setting is listed as CPU Cache ratio in Advanced under OC Tweaker > CPU. Just under CPU ratio in my BIOS. Hope that helps. Edited by badbri - 16 Apr 2018 at 8:44am

	Are there any guides to oc'ing on this motherboard? I tried to use the 'default' one posted by Gigabyte and half the entries don't exist in this motherboard's bios... or are called something else which makes this FAR more difficult than it needs to be. For instance, I mistook the cpu core voltage input voltage to be the VCORE voltage and had it set to 2.2. Set the cpu ratio to 46 and it booted just fine at 4600. Now I go in, and find the actual vcore, set it to 2.2, leave that core input voltage at 1.9 and the computer won't even boot into the OS. Anyway, any help on this specific cpu mb combo would be GREATLY appreciated... I don't know why info is so damn hard to find! All I keep running into are AMD Fanbois yelling about ryzen and stupid crap like that. FAR less than useful!
