Im researching them and have yet to try it, will need to get the PLL of the board to test. Good luck with future endeavors!Īlso discovered two programs might succeed in software overclocking like you were trying with XTU. You're pretty much at the top of the socket. Only real way you can get more performance since overclocking is locked out.Įdit: just realized you have a w3680. So if you want more performance from the socket, sell your old Xeon (or keep as backup, whatever) and just buy a higher processor in the family. Hey if you wanted to upgrade the PSU, check out my build thread.Īlso from what i understand, these Z400 boards can support up to a w3690 hexacore CPU, which on, score nearly as high as i7-3770ks stock.
