disclaimer yes the title is misleading I already know that but that's because I really didn't know what else to call this video we're essentially going to be converting our xeon processor and its behavior into that of a core i7 6700 k so this is eon is based on 40 nanometers phallic architecture we can only specific motherboard specific server grade motherboards c to 32 and c to 36 boards with this particular processor and those boards generally don't allow for overclocking how disappointing however with as rocks III v5 gaming overclocked motherboard it's possible you can overclock a Xeon e3 v5 processor I'm going to show you how in this video the core i7 6700 K was predisposed to be the best processor in the sky like lineup we're talking about four cores eight threads and an unlock multiplier meaning endless possibilities depending on how you decide to cool your CPU now in the case of the Xeon e3 v5 1230 I said that backwards 12:30 v5 things get a little different because you can't overclock that CPU technically so the multiplier is locked which means that we can't change that number to be multiplied by our base clock frequency to thus up or down our CPU frequency but what we can do is change the base clock frequency now if you saw my xeon gaming bill but you can check out the card above me I use an Asus gaming xeon motherboard which did not allow for any overclocking whatsoever i couldn't change the basic clock frequency there wasn't even option to change the multiplier i understood all that when i first bought all those parts and i did recommend that a switch board in that video but i am changing my mind because asrock has since allowed for base clock overclocking via their motherboard their e3 v5 gaming overclocked motherboard which you can pick up right now in the US for about 140 bucks the answer of BIOS was very simple to navigate through it was very easily able to fly my base clock frequency and race that in order to attain the desired CPU frequency if you interested in how to do all of that I have a video detailing it in the card above me go and check that one I'm not gonna bother repeating that in this video because I don't think it's necessary to go and check that one out instead I ultimately ended up very satisfied with the overclock I was able to obtain I ended up at 4.6 gigahertz with a base clock frequency of just over 130 and a V core of 1.4 now I understand that one point 4 volts is a bit high for skylake processors a special xeon processors that aren't designed at all to be overclocked we reached about a TC running Cinebench and about 85 c running i-264 i'm not going to put it through prime95 because I know temperatures gonna hit like a hundred C and I'm not interested in doing that or wrecking my processor a quick word on prime95 I only recommend using that software if you're looking for a very moderate and conservative overclocked overclocking to this extent will result in a fail under several cores for prime95 it's just the result of the software it pushes CPUs to very very synthetic unrealistic extremes and in the case of what I do with this computer video editing rendering and playing video games I'm not pushing the CP anywhere near that point I already have a series detailing CP frequency and the advantages you'll see in games you can check out part 1 of the series in the cart above me but I will show you however in this video are the CPU synthetics what you can obtain when it comes to just raw rendering power cinnamon score and Geekbench scores go ahead and throw those up as you can see overclocking museum with a threads is very beneficial that's why I do recommend purchasing this as rock overclocking motherboards aboard the video's description be sure to check that out sure to get the video a thumbs up if you think the content in this video was great give the thumbs down if you hate everything about life you can subscribe but if you haven't already stay tuned for more content here on the channel this is science studio thanks for learning with us you
