You can do that, but good luck finding helpful advice in the Msi, Asus, Gigabyte, etc. Seeing as my post is the most helpful and substantiated so far, I was reacting to his bash post calling my advice mediocre and adding nothing but 'look at your mainboard manufacturers forums'. If you want to discuss the OP then do so, but there is no reason to demean a rather well known tech support poster or his equipment.ДЄnd using the bios to manually set voltage and multipliers/baseclock is the way to overclock efficiently and effectively, not some pathetic automatic software. This discussion has nothing to do with Jinglehell's computer, nor has it anything to do with optimal loading values for various powersupplies. Giving the PSU headroom is not inefficient, in fact it is MORE efficient because the maximum efficiency of your PSU is probably at 50-60% load so the only thing you do is to risk that your PSU will die earlier and run at less efficiency than if you had used a 750w PSU (saving energy.).

Let's not make it a nerd battle, but your chaotic undersupplied (650w corsair for 2 gtx 480, while it does match the energy requirements barely, your PSU runs almost capped under full load) low-OCed system really isn't a good testimonial of your PC-knowledge. Yeah, that's why I said ONLY if it's an EVGA because they have good forums.

Enthusiasts will use software tools to build on top of the day-to-day level stuff in BIOS, but for what you're talking, you want to do it properly. It's better to do the early steps (the normal, basic, day-to-day overclocking) through your BIOS. Overclocking through dummy OCs tends to involve random-ass voltages, and software can have issues interacting well with the BIOS. Check your motherboard manufacturers forums first, they'll frequently have safer information for learning from. In fact it makes it a lot easier to stutter step your way upwards with the clock-speed until your load-test fails. OCing through software is 'doing it by yourself' and it doesn't tend to 'suck' for CPU. You're not dumb, just crazy overclocking without any idea of what you're doing. It can not only because by too low voltages but also by too high voltages. When overclocking my i7 I had several settings that were stable in Intelburntest (or any Linpack based test in general) and Prime but gave me less performance or even a really throttled feeling. This is why you not only should check for stability but also for performance. Make sure your motherboard has a good power-design and that your motherboard-chipset is a good one to overclock and that you have a proper aftermarket cooler so heat doesn't become an issue for any economical overclock (If you have a good air-cooler you won't run into heat-limitation unless you go for extreme OCs which tend to give you 100-200MHz more at the price of a lot higher voltage).Д®dit: About the computer feeling slow. and for the needed information (there's a good chance a overclocking thread on your CPU exists in which you will find all the intel you need) while trying to avoid the Guru3d forums and any German forums in general. Really no point in explaining it any further here.Д¬heck f.e. And then, when you have found good and stable settings you apply them in the bios. #3 You're not dumb, just crazy overclocking without any idea of what you're doing.ДЇirst you should search for an overclock thread about your specific CPU, it will make things a lot easier and you can try to just copy working settings of another user that worked for him (may not work for you but it's a good thing to start off with) of course after you read a little bit especially about which setting does what.
