So, I tried the "Load 4GHz profile" option, but it doesn't seem to ..work? my Cooler is a Corsair 100i GTX ..so I think I'm ok there (not that this is the cause for the failure..I'm sure I'm doing something wrong)... Any hints as to where I'm messing up? I haven't OC'd in years..just thought I'd give it a go after setting this beast up last night. ------------- Asrock X99X Killer 3.1 i7 5930k Corsair GTX 100i Cooler 16GB (4x4GB) DDR2400 Ballistix eVGA GTX 970 Corsair AX1200W Samsung Pro 950 512GB M.2 NVMe |

Thanks, but not exactly what I was looking for. The motherboard has profiles...but none seem to actually apply the oc... wondering if I'm missing something... ------------- Asrock X99X Killer 3.1 i7 5930k Corsair GTX 100i Cooler 16GB (4x4GB) DDR2400 Ballistix eVGA GTX 970 Corsair AX1200W Samsung Pro 950 512GB M.2 NVMe |

The RAM has the profiles programmed on them. Just how are you setting/choosing the XMP Profiles in the BIOS? Setting XMP is simply a matter of choosing the Profile, Saving and rebooting. That's not working there is what you're saying? I included the two links above as you seemed to play with the "Load 4Ghz' option. Most who do that don't have an inkling how to OC. My bad there. < id="kpm_plugin" ="application/x-KPMPlugin">

pretty much what I'm saying. I apply the profiles...save and exit..nothing changes. It's bizarre.. the 5930k is fast at stock, but wanted to play with OC'ing...don't really want to screw with the settings manually..want the preset ones from someone who knows what they're doing ;) ------------- Asrock X99X Killer 3.1 i7 5930k Corsair GTX 100i Cooler 16GB (4x4GB) DDR2400 Ballistix eVGA GTX 970 Corsair AX1200W Samsung Pro 950 512GB M.2 NVMe |

So you apply the OC profile, save and exit, and it does not apply the OC? Otherwise the PC boots? Are you changing any other settings in the UEFI on your own? Any chance you are disabling Turbo? ------------- http://valid.x86.fr/48rujh" rel="nofollow">

I'm only choosing the profile and saving and exiting. When it boots, it shows as 3.5GHz still.....I go back into BIOS the profile is still chosen...it just doesn't seem like it does anything. ------------- Asrock X99X Killer 3.1 i7 5930k Corsair GTX 100i Cooler 16GB (4x4GB) DDR2400 Ballistix eVGA GTX 970 Corsair AX1200W Samsung Pro 950 512GB M.2 NVMe |

parsec, I'm wondering..I was reading thru another one (A Z170 board, though) ..and you mentioned Turbo must be on..I'm actually not sure if it is...I'm at work, can't check..will when I get home..or is it on because I can choose the OC'ing options? I don't know...like I said..been forever since I OC'd. could be the issue, I suppose? ------------- Asrock X99X Killer 3.1 i7 5930k Corsair GTX 100i Cooler 16GB (4x4GB) DDR2400 Ballistix eVGA GTX 970 Corsair AX1200W Samsung Pro 950 512GB M.2 NVMe |

Turbo is set to enabled..still won't OC..I'm obviously messing up somewhere... Oh well...I really don't need it, I suppose..heh ------------- Asrock X99X Killer 3.1 i7 5930k Corsair GTX 100i Cooler 16GB (4x4GB) DDR2400 Ballistix eVGA GTX 970 Corsair AX1200W Samsung Pro 950 512GB M.2 NVMe |

Do not use the automatic overclock, for 4ghz just set the V-core to 1.200V (to be stable at 100%) and increase the multiplier, thats it.... if is stable try to decrement the V-core at 0.010 step until you find the sweet spot :) |
