ASRock Z390 Phantom Gaming 9 Motherboard Review

Overclocking

Disclaimer: Overclocking is never guaranteed, so the results may vary depending on certain conditions and various hardware configurations. I am not recommending overclocking if you do not know what are you doing. High voltages may damage your hardware and it will not be covered by warranty.

 

Overclocking was a breeze, the BIOS was extremely easy to use and I managed to overclock our Core i7-8700K from the default speed of 3.7 GHz to a respectable 5.0GHz with good stability. 

All I had to do was set the CPU ration to “All Core” at 50 with the CPU Cache Ratio at 37.

When overclocking you’ll always need a little extra CPU voltage … Remember to select “OC Mode” and select the CPU Load-Line Calibration to either Level 1 or 2.
