That is a general statement about current Intel hardware, X99 has features/options that allow the processor to change the effective BCLK to the processor without changing the actual BCLK frequency. The final core or processor speed/frequency, whether set by the core multiplier and standard BCLK (Reference Clock in IXTU), or core multiplier and changing the BCLK or straps, makes no difference in processor voltage requirements or processor life span.Ĭhanging the BCLK can cause instability in other areas of the mother board, since the BCLK is used by other things, such as the PCIe lanes. There is a lot more going on, or is possible with the BIOS CPU voltage settings, you may be just getting started. The X99 platform is not one that lends itself to teaching OCing to newbies. The per core option is what I see in the screen shot under the Intel Turbo Boost Technology option. OTOH, the CPU Clock Ratio option may be another way of implementing an "all core" multiplier, rather than a "per core" multiplier OC. I don't see a CPU strap option in the screen shot. That is, the standard base clock (BCLK) is 100 (100MHz), and an optional strap of 125 (125MHz) is available, among others. Re: GA-X99-SOC Force: Basic overclock question / assistance?īut I must say, the usual way to OC modern Intel processors is by changing the Turbo multiplier of the cores, not what is normally the processor's base frequency multiplier, the CPU Clock Ratio option in the BIOS screen shot.Īn option to change the base frequency multiplier is unusual, although in the case of X99 platforms, that is probably related to the ability to use base clock "straps".
