3804 | C0RR0SIVE | Intel Pentium G3258 @ 3.2Ghz | GTX 750Ti SC | W7 x64 | ORB

Almost feels too low...

blame PP for making you feel that way

Heh graphic *****s texture detail, gpu boost and that chip of his is making it high and beating everyone here.
If he were to reduce that back to stock speed his score would dip down some. :/

Also Corro if money looks good late this summer get yourself a better cpu.

I rather like the CPU I have, all my games work just fine with it.

Better OC that G3258 to show what it can really do .

 

[C0RR0SIVE]

This board isn't exactly meant for overclocking... It's just an ECS B85H3-M so no unlocked multi options, and I am very unfamiliar with overclocking Intel processors... So many little things in the BIOS that I have never seen... After being with AMD for 10 years, I guess I can finally say I am a newb when it comes to Intel builds.

Didn't even break 8k I would try an overclock but Nvidia's OC software bluescreens my PC, even with the most up to date drivers.

7551 | Renegade8888 | i7 2700k @ 4.4ghz | Gainward GTX 770 Phantom | W7 Pro x64 | ORB

Forgot I didn't have the i7 OC'd during that last test, gave me a couple hundred more

So I uninstalled all the old nvidia software like ntune that might have been causing conflicts and used Gainwards EXPERTool to get a stable OC of 1199MHz GPU Clock up from 1150MHz and 1818MHz Memory up from 1753MHz.

Other sites show larger overclocks for this model but this was the highest stable one I could manage so I guess this is my final result

What I would do is uninstall everything including the driver, use DDU to clear out all the left over BS, then install the latest driver and eVGA Precision so you can use Kboost and max voltage. It'll keep your clocks from fluctuating so you can get a higher score.

I have OC bios for certain H81 and B85 boards to OC the G3258. Intel overclocks are as simple as raising volts and multi.
