Anyone able to talk about Bios settings used to get stable 5 Ghz?

Not the preset options, but manual config and whats your settings?

We all know AVX should be set to 2 or 3, and Vcore is fixed to 1.32 + depending, as well ass LLC level 2.

But the rest I am a bit off on, maybe its the fever..


Is -10 AVX too much?

Is that what you were looking for? 


Perfect!  And it's pretty. 
Hope you are feeling better.  Overclock the CPU, keep yourself cool.

I second the motion.  Not a lot of settings info on Z270 boards.  The Taichi, SuperCarrier, and Gaming I7 are said to have circuitry similar to the Z170 Formula OC relevant to overclocking (Tweaktown reviews). 

I have seen reviewers using LLC 1 (most extreme) and dialing up the power and current limits, but not a complete settings "dump".

I would say AVX set to 10 is too HIGH, go with either  1 through 3.


Also my current settings, when manually config in Bios.

  1. All core set to 5 Ghz
  2. CPU Cache Ratio 4.2 - 4.5
  3. BCLK 100.0000
  4. Vcore fixed, 1.39 (1.425 for 5.1 Ghz)  < maybe 1.456 for some people
  5. LLC 3
  6. Leave everything on Auto, but turn of IGPU, Spread Spectrum, Intel Speed Shift


Settings when in OS, using AI suite from Asrock..
In bios leave everything Auto, and turn off the usual IGPU, Spread Spectrum, Intel Speed Shift
  1. Boot into OS, and open Asrock AI tuner thing, what ever it is called now...
  2. For 5 Ghz, I have a + offset of:  .125 - .150, but this will throw errors in Prime \ However everything else works fine, games and benchmarks, so adjust according to your setup
  3. For 5.1 Ghz, +offset of: .165 - .185, but again I get errors in Prime, and this can hit 1.456 in Vcore
  4. For 5.2 Ghz, +offset of: .190 - .200 (THIS IS DANGEROUS) do it ALL OF THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE, read below for testing help

You don't want to hit above 1.500 Vcore, as you can fry or reduce your CPU lifespan. unless you are using LN2 or Helium to cool your CPU

I personally prefer BIOS tuning, than OS tuning, but depending on your setup, be careful

I would open up prime 95, or LinX, or Intel Burn Test
Set the +offset low and test, while keeping an eye on HWinfo, or Cpuz, monitoring Vcore during test

If you get errors up the voltage, by .005 until the errors seem to go away, bare in mind, since you
left the bios voltage on Auto, that the motherboard may throw to much Vcore, so look at the 
Max Vcore, Min Vcore, and Average Vcore. To determine what you were running at, I use HWinfo, and compare with CPUz, and Corsair Link (Corsair Link said one time I hit 2.000 on Vcore, which would mean my CPU just got fried so don't trust it.

Good Luck,

SerpentXSF
