Toppc & MSI, a truly record breaking combination!

You're welcome, thanks for sharing your experiences (awesome background by the way )

Some fiddling with the MSI Z170A TOMAHAWK AC motherboard and an i3-6100 @ 5GHz

Hi all, I've updated the Z170A GAMING M7 BIOS file and included a working Z170A GAMING PRO BIOS. Please find the updated download link here: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=EC95B515D14CF270!542&authkey=!AG5n2XUZVVOpwi8&ithint=file%2crar

Who needs iGPU anyway? A few things: • CPU BCLK OC ONLY • Limited with discrete VGA card, no way to use iGPU • EIST, CPU C-states and Turbo Boost feature will be disabled

MSI now supports overclocking non-K Skylake CPUs on a wide choice of Z170 motherboards. If you are looking for the right BIOS version to fiddle around a bit yourself, look no further You can find all the BIOSses using this link: https://mega.nz/file/woFVVKjL#ut8PQY8BK1wRZkXMzFQNIL5s14oikaIBLb1Ga5fZD90 Like many of you probably would have guessed and find unneeded to mention, a little disclaimer on this matter: *Overclocking Intel non-K CPUs is not officially supported by Intel and the BIOS versions created by MSI unlocking this option are all beta versions. Intel may choose to disable this option at any time. At no point MSI can be taken responsible for disabling overclocking for non-K CPUs. Happy benching! *Log: - Updated on 15/01/2016 fixed BIOS versions for KRAIT and TOMAHAWK models, added new Z170A GAMING PRO CARBON, Z170A KRAIT GAMING R6 SIEGE and Z170A KRAIT GAMING 3X models - Updated on 21/12/2015 to include working versions of Z170A GAMING M7, Z170A GAMING PRO & Z170-A PRO

Fixed. Thanks guys (Y)

Hi guys, I've been trying to enter the Elite league but it seems locked on my account. This is probably because there is a OC cup underway. I would like to join the Elite league since I will doing more and more submissions using ES chips, but I'm not looking to join any team at the moment. Can you please help arrange this? Thanks.

Dat GPU score! Congrats man, awesome result and step in new territory

Thanks to MSI and Hardware.info Pro OC

Tnx

Very nice result!

@whoever reported my score; my system pic includes my watercooled GTX690. The GTX460 used for this benchmark uses standard air cooling.
