Hello,
I've been testing the overclocking capacity of my 4930k today and there is one thing that seems odd to me:
The turbo mode in the bios MUST be enabled in order for the clock multiplier to work. If I disable it, I can only do 3.4Ghz no matter what the multiplier in the BIOS says (in windows 7 its stuck to 34x100mhz).
My previous platform was X58 and there disabling turbo mode was the standard procedure for overclocking. Has this changed now? Is it safe to have turbo mode on?
