C30413 - system components
C30415 - ..
C30416 - Written by Mihaela Citea on December 10th, 2012
C30418 - ..
C30419 - Computer performance is very important for every user,
C30420 - especially those who are working with applications that
C30421 - require important system resources to work properly. In order
C30422 - to enhance it, you can use an overclocking utility, such as
C30423 - OCCT.
C30425 - ..
C30426 - This software is designed to help you monitor system
C30427 - hardwarecomponents and allow you to overclock them. It
C30428 - provides testing tools for the CPU (benchmark OCCT and LINPACK
C30429 - tests), the graphics card and the power supply.
C30431 - ..
C30432 - The interface is intuitive and comprises two panels, one that
C30433 - includes the 'Monitoring' section and the other that displays
C30434 - the available tests.
C30436 - ..
C30437 - In its main window, OCCT displays detailed information
C30438 - regarding your hardware devices, such as the CPU and the
C30439 - motherboard. Also, there is a table where you can view the
C30440 - current and the overclocked CPU and bus frequencies.
C30442 - ..
C30443 - The CPU and the memory usage are constantly monitored and the
C30444 - values are displayed in a dynamic graph. By default, the
C30445 - program uses HWMonitor to generate them, but it also offers
C30446 - support from third party monitoring software, such as AIDA64,
C30447 - provided that you have them installed in your PC.
C30449 - ..
C30450 - Whichever test you decide to choose, overclocking can easily
C30451 - be turned on or stopped anytime you want. Before starting, the
C30452 - user has the possibility to select the test type (infinite or
C30453 - automatic), configure its duration and idle periods, as well
C30454 - as other parameters, depending on the selected hardware
C30455 - device.
C30457 - ..
C30458 - For instance, the LINPACK test allows you to choose the memory
C30459 - percentage, while choosing the GPU test lets you customize the
C30460 - resolution and the FPS limit.
C30462 - ..
C30463 - Once the selected test is started, you can immediately view
C30464 - the effects on your CPU and memory usage graph, as well as the
C30465 - new values for the CPU frequency.
C30467 - ..
C30468 - Although it does not offer a wide range of options, OCCT
C30469 - proves to be a handy tool for enhancing the overall system
C30470 - performance.

CN0417 - After creating overclock profile for 4.8GHz, experimented overclocking
CN0418 - to 5.2GHz. System was not stable with initial voltages. Performance
CN0419 - stabalized with slightly higher voltages, but system was running hot,
CN0420 - up to 81c on 2 cores.

CN0428 - ..
CN0429 - Apparently, key issues are voltage and temperature. Research
CN0430 - indicates rule of thumb to keep voltages below 1.4, and temperatures
CN0431 - below 80c.
CN0433 - ..
CN0434 - During next several months BIOS reported 2 or 3 boot failures at

CN0469 - So, restored c21 oveclock profile to 4.8GHz.

E40515 - remove stuff that is inappropriate for that machine, for
E40516 - example, if you have no speakers: 'Remove volume control
E40517 - icon'. Thirdly, employing the traditional group policy role
