    XMP enabled on Gigabyte Gaming 7 overclocks CPU


    I just got my new PC running with the Gigabyte Z170x Gaming 7 motherboard and Intel Skylake 6700k. My memory is Corsair Vengeance LPX and it's base speed is 1633. With XMP enabled it runs at 2400.

    So once I got everything installed and running I went back into my UEFI BIOS and enabled XMP to profile 1 (the only option) and the memory now runs at 2400 as expected. However, now the CPU is automatically bumped up to 4.2GHz instead of the stock 4.0GHz. If I disable XMP the overclock remains at 4.2 even though XMP is disabled and the memory is back to 1633. I wanted to run XMP but I didn't think it would force a CPU overclock also.

    I found this on another site about this issue:

    "The most troublesome "feature" of the firmware is that if you enable an XMP profile or change the memory multiplier, the CPU is automagically overclocked by applying the highest turbo multiplier—normally only used if one core is busy—to all turbo states, no matter how many cores are active. For a Core i7-6700K, this tweak means that if more than one core is active, you'll be running at 4.2GHz rather than 4.0GHz. A lot of modern boards play games like these with multipliers, but what makes the Gaming 7's behavior particularly nefarious is that the firmware shows the default non-overclocked Turbo multipliers while actually using the overclocked ones. To make matters worse, there's no single config option, say "Enhanced Turbo," that disables this behavior. Instead, you have to set the four turbo multipliers to their proper values of 42, 40, 40, and 40 manually. Nasty."

    http://www.bjorn3d.com/2015/09/gigab...0x-gaming-7/2/

    So I have no experience with overclocking. Is this bad? I just wanted the memory to run a bit faster at 2400 since that's what the box listed it as being capable of. Should I be worrying that the CPU is overclocked like this automatically? Is this normal? What else has changed in the BIOS after enabling XMP? I want all the cores enabled and I want turbo enabled also. What do I set to bump it back to stock 4.0GHz if I want to? Even in Gigabyte's EasyTune software, it now lists the default as 4.2GHz.

    BSOD when XMP Is Enabled

    Then you have a different interpretation...

    Thank you.

    Cute.

    At any rate, I'm not here to compete. I'm just adding what I know. Anyway It does the OP no good for us to argue over semantics.

  4. BSoD Error after Overclocking CPU and enabling XMP

    XMP enabled on Gigabyte Gaming 7 overclocks CPU


    That's odd behavior i had a gaming 7 board but swapped it out because it gave me too many problems with legacy USB

    Anyway maybe it's the CPU my 6700k doesn't boost to 4.2 it boost to 4.1 Ghz at one point i was going to trade it back but it doesn't matter it still does the job I don't think it going to max turbo is bad just monitor temps and voltages because it seems like overclocking on these Z170 boards causes higher voltage and that's a no no in my book
