A10 5800K Apu with nice OC capabilities

[marko.delvechio]

Hello guys,

 

I have recently started Ocing just for fun, and as i learned about it i noticed my Apu has really nice ocing capabilities.

Reading the following thread:

I came to conclusion that my APU has some great potential for further overclocking.

This is TCI info about the APU

So am i right when in my conclusion that it indeed is a rare find and worth overclocking to the max?

 

Since im quite new in this id like someone to confirm if my conclusion is correct here.

 

I even competed in AMD rookie rumble #11 and did pretty well with ocing scores with my rig.

APU overclock from 3.8 stock to 5.33 Ghz at 1.55 V

Memory read bandwidth of 18170 Mbps

 

 

Also i am using a low end cooler from cooler master which i am extremely satisfied with!

Very nice one man, mine needs cold to get over 5Ghz, so very nice CPU you got there

I have the Asrock FM2A88M EXTREME4+ motherboard, and i was wondering how can i push the apu voltage beyond the maximum that can be set in bios ?

 

Is there any other way of increasing it further?
