    BIOS Settings for Overclock I7 2700k

    Good morning.

    Please can you email me or post here the overclock settings for my recent order?

    When I initially started to install windows the system locked up and when it tried to reboot the BIOS froze eventually failing with an overclock error. The BIOS then re-loaded it's safe defaults without the overclock settings.

    I finished off the windows install and on a subsequent reboot reloaded the overclocked BIOS settings by pressing F12 in the BIOS.

    All went well for a few days before I decided to re-install windows as by this time I'd found all the drivers I needed for the system so a fresh install with the correct drivers seemed like a good idea.

    The system again locked up on the windows install and removed the overclock settings - as the machine rebooted it found a checksum error in the BIOS and overwrote the live backup with the backup copy that of course does not have the overclock settings saved so my machine is currently depressingly standard

    Thanks

    Thanks Ben - I emailed those to systemsupport at scan.co.uk (with a similar request to the above text) last thursday at 5.15pm.

    Can you dig the email out or do you want me to resend it ??

    cheers

    Hi

    I have found an email for an OC Bundle customer asking for bios settings and unfortunately I dont have these as its not a fully built 3xs system so I have forwarded the email to the guys that do the bundles and asked that they forward you the settings

    Regards

    Ben

    Thanks Arron - I tried to reply but I've got no message space !

    It's on F1 but I can flash it up to F5 or F6 before trying the settings out.

    I'd leave it at F1 unless there is some kind of issue.

    Thanks,
