Need help finding overclocking settings in BIOS on my Z97 Gaming 7

Hello Folks!
As the title states I need some help finding some settings in the BIOS to help in overclocking on my awesome new MSI Z97 Gaming 7 mobo! For instance I can't find anything related to Load Line Calibration, LLC. I am unable to find additional settings for PLL and what the settings that are there do, for instance CPU PLL, the options are something like LL and SB? There is no explanation for what either of these are. These may be pretty basic things in overclocking Intel. I should also mention that I am new to Intel processors and their mobo's. I have always used AMD cpu's and overclocking seemed a bit more straight forward. This is also the first MSI motherboard I have owned so I am also new to these. I have been a great fan of MSI GPU's for years and finally had the chance to buy a motherboard and while it has been a great experience thus far I seem to be slighty behind the learning curve here. I do appreciate all the help I am able to get. I have read the guides that I have seen others pointed towards and have not really found the information I am looking for there.

Nichrome, thank you for the heads up concerning placing my rig info into my signature, I will do that immediately. Thanks for trying to help. I really do appreciate it. I am very familiar with overclocking on the AMD platform. I have previously owned and abused the PhenomII 965BE, 1055T FX-8320 and FX-8350. I guess switching from AMD to Intel and being confronted by so many new terms and settings in the BIOS I was kind of lost. I wasn't really too concerned with the PLL per say other than just desiring to know as much about my new system and motherboard as possible. I have always been a firm believer that to get the most out of your equipment you need to know it intimately, I guess I will get there with a bit of time and perseverance! I was really mainly trying to figure out where the LLC settings would be hidden or what they would be known as with an Intel based system, this setting is usually quite important when trying to stabilize higher overclocks. I am currently running and tinkering with an OC speed of 4.7-4.8GHz @ 1.275v with temps staying ~55C. I was hoping to push a little further and was trying to give myself the best possible advantage in doing so. Again, thanks for the help and information!!!

  • Need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook.......

    need help with how to reset bios and admin password to reformat hard drive in 8440p elitebook? removal of cmos, resetting laptop, using cccleaner, windows password recovery and hiren's was noneffective, any help is appreciated. thanks

    Hi,
    As your notebook is a business class machine, security is more stringent - the password is stored in non-volatile memory and there are no 'backdoor' passwords.  Your best option would be to contact HP regarding this.

  • HT1349 I need help finding an old library that itunes states my ipod is already linked to

    I need help finding an old library that it states my ipod is already linked to.  My computer recently had a terrible virus and needed to be wiped clean.  I had to redownload itunes and I bought several songs.  I want to add them to my old library because I had several cd's that I had uploaded.  Is there a way to find that old library and combine them without having to erase all the songs that are currently on my ipod???  Thanks

    Umm.  If you wiped the hard drive, then all old libraries are gone unless you have them on backup.

  • Need help finding a driver for my hp webcam . My computer say I dont have a camera but I do.

    Need help finding my camera[webcam] on my computor.

    Can you provide us with your computer model number?  Take a look in Device Manager to see if there is an Imaging Devices group that includes the webcam.  If not, is there an Unknown Device listed?  This would indicate that your webcam is detected, but there is no driver installed.  We can help you find the correct driver if that is the case.  Let's start with the computer model number.  Thanks.

    she uses final cut program question is does the GB/RAM/STORAGE matter on performance?
    She has a 2009 Apple computer I want to upgrade her to a new one
    I Dont know much when it comes to specs. She edits tons of videos and pictures.
    what's recommended for a video/photo editor that's good in performance ?

    Pro consumer might go with iMac even.
    Final Cut Pro latest benefits from dual AMD graphics.
    Video is one animal, graphics a much different.
    Great site full of performance, buying and configuration ideas:
    MacPerformance Go to the main topics
    I think you need to get clear on budgets. start with mid range and add all the options and can spend $4,000 or $7,000.
    Go to the Mac Store and do some looking and Google for reviews of software, hardware of course.

  • Need help finding errors.

    I need help finding the error(s) in my code. I am writing a program to convert decimal to binary. It is not an application. It is more of a blue print for an object.
    The Program is:
    public class DecimalToBinary
         private long decimal;
         private long binary;
    //Constructor setes the variable decimal and coverts and sets the variable binary
    public DecimalToBinary(int decValue)
         decimal = (long)decValue;
         binary = convert(decValue);
    //This method does the actual conversion from decimal to binary
    public long convert(long dec)
              long remainder = 0; //Start with initial value
         String bin = ""; //Start with a blank string
              while (dec > 0)
              remainder = dec%2; //get remainder
                   dec /=2; //get the number divided by 2
                   bin = remainder + bin; //concatenate the remainder to string
         return Long.parseLong(bin);
         //Accesor methods to get the value of decimal
    public long getDecimal()
         return decimal;
    // Accessor Method to return binary Value
    public long getBinary()
         return binary;
    // To string to represent Object.
    public String toString()
         String result = "";
    result = decimal +"\t\t\t" +binary;
         name1.getDecimal()     
         return result;
    The error I am getting is:
    DecimalToBinary.java:56: ';' expected
         name1.getDecimal()     
         ^
    1 error
    ----jGRASP wedge2: exit code for process is 1.
    ----jGRASP: operation complete.
    I've tried putting the ; in there but it doesn't help and only throws another error.

    Did you read the error message?
    DecimalToBinary.java:56: ';' expected
    name1.getDecimal() What is missing? Can you see where on the line of code it has identified that the missing thing is?

    Also, please be aware that Lightroom is not a file browser like your operating system Finder or Explorer is. If the photos are not in the folder you expected them to be in, it is because you (accidentally) imported them into a different folder.
