When the user wants to exceed the limits of the graphic card, they make use of GPU overclocking software. This is not at all scary and is pretty easy as well as precise and you can access the video card settings using this. When the GPU clock frequency, as well as voltage and fan speed, is increased the performance as well as the temperature can be balanced and the graphics card potential can be increased. There are different kinds of CPU overclocking software download which are available and also intel overclocking software for various intel processors.

It also has additional features like customization of the fan profiles or video recording as well as benchmarking. This software is available free of cost and it can be used with all kinds of graphics cards. You can also see CPU Temparature Monitor

What is Overclocking Software?

Some of the various GPU overclocking software in addition to pushing the limits of the graphic card, also have hardware monitors which show the hardware information in real time such as the usage, voltage, clock speed as well as the temperature. You can even display whatever information is required when you are gaming and thus Nvidia overclocking software assists as well.

When there is CPU overclocking software download which is done, there is absolute control over all the minutest details including extensive control over graphics MSI cards. Precise control of the memory, core as well as PLL voltages can also be maintained and heat dissipation is done efficiently.

Various intel overclocking software and others as well also allow you to choose the look and feel and customize the user skins. There is multi language support available and there are benchmarking tools available as well which help to push the graphics card to the limits and so stability can be tested as well as thermal performance.

Installing memory

The internal components of your iMac can be warm. If you've been using your iMac, wait ten minutes after shutting it down to let the internal components cool.

After you shut down your iMac and give it time to cool, follow these steps:

1. Disconnect the power cord and all other cables from your computer.
2. Place a soft, clean towel or cloth on the desk or other flat surface to prevent scratching the display.
3. Hold the sides of the computer and slowly lay the computer face-down on the towel or cloth.
4. Open the memory compartment door by pressing the small grey button located just above the AC power port:
5. The memory compartment door will open as the button is pushed in. Remove the compartment door and set it aside:
6. A diagram on the underside of the compartment door shows the memory cage levers and the orientation of the DIMM. Locate the two levers on the right and left sides of the memory cage. Push the two levers outward to release the memory cage:
7. After the memory cage is released, pull the memory cage levers toward you, allowing access to each DIMM slot.
8. Remove a DIMM by pulling the module straight up and out. Note the location of the notch on the bottom of the DIMM. When reinstalling DIMMs, the notch must be oriented correctly or the DIMM won't fully insert:
9. Replace or install a DIMM by setting it down into the slot and pressing firmly until you feel the DIMM click into the slot. When you insert a DIMM, make sure to align the notch on the DIMM to the DIMM slot. Find your model below for specific installation instructions and notch locations:
   • iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2020) DIMMs have a notch on the bottom, slightly left of the middle. If your DIMMs are mixed in capacity, minimize the capacity difference between Channel A (slots 1 and 2) and Channel B (slots 3 and 4) when possible.
     
   • iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019) DIMMs have a notch on the bottom, slightly left of the middle:
   • iMac (27-inch, Late 2012) and iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017) DIMMs have a notch on the bottom left:
     
   • iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) and iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014, Mid 2015, and Late 2015) DIMMs have a notch on the bottom right:
     
10. After you install all of your DIMMs, push both memory cage levers back into the housing until they lock into place:
    
11. Replace the memory compartment door. You don't need to press the compartment door release button when replacing the compartment door.
12. Place the computer in its upright position. Reconnect the power cord and all other cables to the computer, then start up the computer.
    

Your iMac performs a memory initialization procedure when you first turn it on after upgrading memory or rearranging DIMMs. This process can take 30 seconds or more, and the display of your iMac remains dark until it's finished. Make sure to let the memory initialization complete.

Macbook Ram Memory

Confirm that your iMac recognizes its new memory

After you install memory, you should confirm that your iMac recognizes the new RAM by choosing Apple () menu > About This Mac.

The window that appears lists the total memory, including the amount of memory that originally came with the computer plus the newly added memory. If all the memory in the iMac has been replaced, it lists the new total of all installed RAM.

For detailed information about the memory installed in your iMac, click System Report. Then choose Memory under the Hardware section in the left side of System Information.

If your iMac doesn’t start up after you install memory

If your iMac doesn’t start up or turn on after you install additional memory, check each of following, then try to start your iMac again.

• Verify that the added memory is compatible with your iMac.
• Visually inspect each DIMM to ensure they are correctly installed and fully seated. If one DIMM sits higher or is not parallel to the other DIMMs, remove and inspect the DIMMs before reinstalling them. Each DIMM is keyed and can only be inserted in one direction.
• Confirm that the memory cage levers are locked into place.
• Make sure to let the memory initialization complete during startup. Newer iMac models perform a memory initialization procedure during startup after you upgrade memory, reset NVRAM, or rearrange DIMMs. This process can take 30 seconds or more and the display of your iMac remains dark until the process completes.
• Disconnect all attached peripherals other than keyboard/mouse/trackpad. If the iMac begins working correctly, reattach each peripheral one at a time to determine which one is preventing the iMac from operating correctly.
• If the issue persists, remove the upgraded DIMMs and reinstall the original DIMMs. If the iMac works correctly with the original DIMMs, contact the memory vendor or place of purchase for assistance.

If your iMac makes a tone after you install memory

iMac models introduced before 2017 might make a warning sound when you start up after installing or replacing memory:

• One tone, repeating every five seconds signals that no RAM is installed.
• Three successive tones, then a five-second pause (repeating) signals that RAM doesn't pass a data integrity check.

If you hear these tones, confirm that the memory you installed is compatible with your iMac and that it's installed correctly by reseating the memory. If your Mac continues to make the tone, contact Apple Support.
