Hello all, since I got myself an i7 2600k I am now ready for a little bit of overclocking. I just bought myself an "Noctua NH-D14" and now I was wondering if someone could give me some overclocking advice. I want my pc to turn at stable 4,5 GhZ, I hope anyone can help, oh and does turning of HT make any sense when overclocking, or shall it always be on if overclocking or not? Regards

All this happens through your BIOS.

in the bios as Jim said. Most people prefer it off, cooler temperaturers and better overclocking. I would study these two guides: http://www.clunk.org.uk/forums/overclocking/39184-p67-sandy-bridge-overclocking-guide-beginners.html http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1578110

Thanks alot, I will take a look at those articels.

Constructive answer Claudio, here are also couple of links that might help you step further:http://www.overclock...guide-p67a.htmlhttp://www.techreact...ridge-v0-1beta/http://www.xtremesys...-BSOD-code-list And yes, HT off is in BIOS.

So where to turn off HT is in the same place that I answered, correct? Sorry that I was on my lunch hour and couldn't provide and links for overclocking.

I don't know, Word Not Allowed - seems to me Jim should get at LEAST 1 hour detention after work! :) Vic
