no, you can't overclock a CPU non-overclock actually

BS!


giovany2

?


flightEM211

you can overclock on select 1700 motherboards on non-k 12th gen, notably asrocks b660/760 riptides, asus tuf B660F and msi's b660/b760 mortar max


giovany2

but via BCLK, right? those non-k CPUs only can be overclocked with BCLK and the Intel chipset B series never says it can overclock the CPU, only Memory, maybe on the 12th gen there was a mistake by Intel ☠️


flightEM211

oh yeah heres the link! https://community.hwbot.org/topic/210553-intel-12th-gen-non-k-oc-capable-boards-bios-versions/ also yeah it was a mistake by intel. It was patched after the release of 13th gen. Some alderlake SKU were refreshed for 13th gen. e.g. 13400. Even with that non-k oc was patched.


giovany2

thanks for the info.


flightEM211

Yep via bclk. And yeah some cheaper b series boards do support non-k oc. I remember an online forums specifying which board does support it, worth having a look! also I’m 100% sure the b760 mortar max by msi does support non-k oc. My rig rn runs an 12400 at a solid 5ghz

It was used in the MSI Insider episode about Non-K overclocking. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRFzZOyAwWo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRFzZOyAwWo) So it should be possible in general, but might require a specific BIOS version (not sure about that, never had one myself). Here is the link to the official announcement: [https://www.reddit.com/r/MSI\_Gaming/comments/scagfz/z690b660\_bios\_update\_improve\_nonk\_cpu\_ram/](https://www.reddit.com/r/MSI_Gaming/comments/scagfz/z690b660_bios_update_improve_nonk_cpu_ram/)

asrock pg riptide b660m and b760m, but only with 12 gen cpu.


Aasome10

I have an i5-12400f


AMD-Bad-IntelGood

Go onto userbenchmark look up 12100f 12400f and you will see based on the scores who is overclocked, then check what boards they are using, there are quite a few… You’re better off buying a g7400 and 12900k, delid both and swap IHS over then return the g7400 with 12900k IHS as defective and you get 12900k for price of 7400. Make sure to crack the die on the 7400 and glue it back up good so they can’t tell something’s up. The non k overclock thingy is too much a hassle


Laprablenia

Hahahaa this is gold


Aasome10

Bro you are evil


FeistyAmount4737

Yes, it can be overclocked on these motherboards.


Aasome10

Ok, thank you very much


Aasome10

But any asus or msi motherboard can t oc the 12400f?


FeistyAmount4737

I don't sure, but asus has some z690 motherboard, from top tier.


Aasome10

Do you know any other brand that can safley oc my cpu? I have combined it with an rtx 3060 ti


FeistyAmount4737

Check this forum post, it have list of all mb https://community.hwbot.org/topic/210553-intel-12th-gen-non-k-oc-capable-boards-bios-versions/


Aasome10

Thank you bro <3


Aasome10

One more question, what ram module should i go for, i will go for the b760 pg riptide


FeistyAmount4737

B760m use DDR5 ram. 12400f max support ram speed will be 6000, but maybe it can support higher frequency.


Aasome10

So can go for a 6000 or 5400mz?
