October 1, 201411 yr Hallo everyone. I have a question about the settings in bios (motherboard Asus Rampage IV Extreme) for a i7 3960. Previously I decide to overclock my old configuration with i7 975 and Rampage III Extreme with the good suggestion from IDAHOSURGE which help me with a perfect guide which I'm still using from 2011 and that could be found here http://forum.avsim.net/topic/327338-need-help-configuring-bios-for-i7-975/. Now I ask someone of you if there is anyone who can help me to overclock the i7 3960 on at least 4.4 or 4.5 ghz stable with Asus Rampage IV Extreme (mine will be the Black Ed.) Below I list the specifications of the components that I'm going to assemble: CPU: I7 3960 with hydro cooler Corsair H100i MOBO : Asus Rampage IV Black Edition x79 socket 2011 RAM: 4x4 16GB Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR3 2133 MHz (PC3-17066)Timing: CL 8-10-10-27 (CAS-TRCD-TRP-TRAS) 1,65 Volt GRAPHIC: ASUS R9290X-DC2OC-4GD5 memory ddr5 4GB.
