Hi AnonGhost

Nice a dual core kabylake cpu, let's see if it overclocks as well or better than the quad cores. 🙂

Do you have a cpu stress testing program, cpu temp and voltage monitoring program ?

Ok great !

You have the tools to overclock your cpu, you can do it with AI Suite but I prefer to do it in the bios.

Will overclocking in the bios be ok with you ?

All right

Your bios might be a little different than mine so bare with me.

Go into the bios and set the AI Overclock Tuner or AI Tweaker to Manual.
Sync all cores
Set the cpu core ratio to 45, both cores should show 45
Scroll down and set the CPU Core/cache voltage to manual and enter in 1.30v in the "CPU Core Voltage Override".

F10 and Enter

Once in windows open Realbench and HWinfo.
Click start in Realbench and monitor temps and voltage in HWinfo.

Vcore is the voltage, you can see the temps near the bottom in the 1st column. Let me know what the maximum temp and voltage is after running the test.
