Overclocking the Asus P8Z68-V Pro motherboard was identical to overclocking boards from the P8P67 family and that’s a good thing. Essentially all I had to do in order to reach 5GHz was to set the load-line calibration to Ultra High and set the CPU-PLL overvoltage option to enabled in BIOS. From there I simply had to find voltages that worked. Increasing my CPU voltage to 1.425v and my CPU PLL voltage to 1.95v were all I needed for stability using a 50x multiplier. Beyond that I had temperature issues and the voltage needed to go up, but stability wasn’t achievable. Memory support worked as it should. I was able to reach the full DDR3 1600MHz potential with my RAM. Read more...
