WOW! Fantastic Hideo-san

Can you upload smaller pictures? For rotation and resizing I always use Irfanview

Nice one! Waiting for Pi-32M ...

Yeah, the CPU frequency is not a real target. I think we can all agree to compromise on raw frequency if the IPC is good Done!

Considering some of the scores on the board are from 2009, I'd say the bar is set low

Okay, so Ryzen launch day is coming up by the end of next month. I figured we should make it clear what the performance targets are.

Looks like a solid rig to me. I'd try and aim for 4.5 - 4.6 GHz. Best of luck!

On the BCLK: it's limited to 102.9 MHz by design. So you will always be overclock 2.9%, but after that it's hard-lock. On the AI auto: is it just forcing the highest turbo ratio?

Cool, best of luck!

WOW

Non-K overclocking was disabled in the new BIOS microcode. All Z270 have the new BIOS microcode to support Kaby Lake processors. Non-K overclocking is not possible anymore, sadly enough

It's pure data connections. So when someone clicks the 'submit to hwbot' after running the benchmark, but before they submit it as a submission in our database

Will tune in to watch!!

Full disclosure: CPUs were provided by Intel, coming straight from the production line. I didn't see any spectacular clocks at the World Tour event, so I'm guessing whoever buys retail now will have more luck than us

The flashing process with FPT tool should be universal, so you can give it a shot. I won't guarantee it works 100% since I can't test it myself.

I don't think there's a BIOS available for the Gaming 5, and I'm afraid there will never be one. Here are some GIGABYTE non-K BIOSes for other Z170 boards: Intel Skylake Non-K Overclocking BIOS-List - Overclocking.Guide

Maybe this can help? http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=161898

Without a K processor or a BIOS of a Z-based motherboard that supports overclocking, I'm afraid there's very little you can do

Are they locked in Windows or in BIOS?

Hmm ... Which file did you download? Are you sure it's not corrupt? Perhaps it's from a different model? System specs would help

What motherboard and BIOS are you using?

Hey, welcome! There are some overclocking results posted in the database: Intel Core i7 6700T @ HWBOT

What BIOS are you on?
