Overclocking 2500k with stock coller?

[SHREDDER]

I have 2500k3 ,3ghz and motherboard is ASUS P567LE. It is with the stock cooler. I have nevee try overclocking it that why i want to know can with the stock coller be overclocked even little or do i need another coller even for a small overclock? If it can, then what the higherst overclock it can reach and be stable with the cooler it has and how much do i need to raise the multipilier to achieve it? Shoud i overclock it from ASUS OC ulitility through BIOS?

if you disabled turbo and c1 states
and its going lower than the oc speed, its throttling, most likley due to heat

Do i need to have both turbo and c1 states disabled to overclclock?

no, but its best to test with them disabled so you can easily see when it throttles and prevent it from turboing over the oc you are aiming for

Ok and how much overclock can with the stock cooler take? How much can it overclock it?

Just get a better cooling. For one the stock ones are poor coolers as-is, they generally are just enough to keep a paired CPU below it's max temp.

Anyone buying basically ANY i5 or i7 should have been buying an aftermarket cooler right from the start. Unless it's going to be an Office PC to which no OC would ever be done, and you don't care about it running at around 75*C under full loads...

Aftermarket coolers that cut the max temp by at least 10-20% (if not more) are not that expensive. Such as these, and will make a huge difference over any stock cooler that ships with the CPU.

There is no point to diving into any OC'ing while using any AMD or Intel Stock Coolers. Cause trust us when we say "you won't get far to make it worth your time" The CPU will throttle and cut you off from achieving any so-called "progress of testing", cause it will simply get too hot.

Yes for ANY OC, disable C1E and TURBO. C1E is a power saving feature, which if you are going to do any manual clock and/or voltage changes, you want off. Turbo is unless cause even for an mind starting OC, you will most likely be raising the base clock above that of which the Turbo runs at when on stock speeds, so the Turbo becomes useless.

You also want to use a Core-Unlocker App ran from within your OS, to ensure all Cores get "unparked"

Οκ so far no problems on 3.7 ghz. I am going to overclock it at 4.ghz. However no matter how much i overclock it it will never reach the perfomance of current cpus like core i5 6600k core i7 6700k e.t.c. because it is too old.

On the contrary. In terms of raw core performance, your 2500k is still very similar to the 6600k.
IMHO, get a decent cooler, one that you can maybe even re-use in the future (*cough* Noctua and their mounting kits).

I took ,my decision. I ewill buy a cpu cooler to overclock it at 4.2 ghz or better. Max that i will spent is 50 euros. Do you have any good suggestions?

Then that leaves pretty much anything from Noctua or any liquid coolers well out of your price range. The two (or similar in design) that I posted back in Post#18 are a really safe bet, and won't break the bank. You can even make those better by getting either better fans for those, or setup dual fans in a Push+Pull config, which both of them allow, all you require is a 2nd fan to make that happen.

Noctua coolers are in his price range. But so are others, like Evo 212.

OP, if you got the chassis size, and a few more Euro to spare, you could reach high end cooling, which could handle any overclock right now, and any new CPU in the future.

I just came back from PC shop. I bought Fazn AERO 120T. They told me that with this cooler i can overclcok it easily to 4.2 but not to risk 4.5 because it is too high of an overclcock. Will at 4.2 ghz be enough for current high end cards like GTX 1080 and Titan x pascal? What about the future graphics cards that will be released from now on(1080 ti 1170 and 1180 in 2018 e.t.c)?

Could have bought a proper high end cooler, but nope...

No, the good ones start at around 60 Euros and above.

But again, most of all Noctua is overkill anyways.

OC to 4.2 is a waste of your time too; it's not high enough to really impact performance.
If you have a decent Motherboard and Cooler, there is no reason your OC shouldn't start at 4.4Ghz +

Return the cooler and buy a good one. Fazn AERO 120T is around that of a Hyper-TX3 cooler, which would be rubbish for any i5 or i7

Why return it? They told me it will be ok for 4. ghz overclock but to not overclcock it at 4.5 How much overclock does it need so i can see a big perfomance increase?

[Bad 💀 Motha]

They told u what you wanted to hear to make a sale.

Go ahead, try it out. I pretty much already know what it will allow you to do.

Why people make threads asking for help, then never take the help...

I mean you asked for good suggestions at under 50 Euros; then rushed out and grabbed something. Any sales person would say "Yea that'll be fine for whatever you're doing"

[SHREDDER]

What it will allow me to then according to you? They told me it is fine for up to 4.2 ghz overclock, However some people say that they have achieved 4.2 ghz even on stock cooler. Which ones should i believe?

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Well sure you could achieve all sorts of various OC with basically any cooler installed; but will it stay cool enough when actually under full loads is the question.

Anyone can go in the BIOS and achieve a high OC with a stock cooler and have that save and load up the OS ok without issues. The issues will be presented when you apply high loads to the CPU and test for both max temps and overall stability of whatever OC you currently have applied. That is what a cooler has to be able to withstand and keep up with.
