I wouldn't run a 9900K at 5.1GHz on that board. Good chance the cpu will thermal throttle.

ah

General advice. 5.1Ghz is a high OC for a 9900K and normally takes an experienced overclocker with very good cooling or a 1-in-1000 chip to get stable at reasonable voltages and temperatures. An inexperienced overclocker is going to have a hard time trying to tame the 9900K in general, even at 4.8-5Ghz. Some things you need to learn about:

 

1. LLC (Load Line Calibration)
   • Vdroop, overshoot, undershoot. Transient response.
2. Vcore vs Vid.
   • SVID
3. Vccsa, Vccio.
4. Adaptive, vs Manual mode.
5. Speedstep, Speedshift, C-States.
6. AVX Offset.
7. Multi-Core Enhancement.
8. ???

So do some studying on these topics, and you might be able to get more out of your chip. Here are some places to start:

I was following this tutorial that went over most of the things in there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjPXWEgxoxo&t=335s . I will look into more of that using the resources you mentioned

EDIT: the overclock did nothing, cpu-z shows 4.6GHZ during cinebench r20 run instead of 5.1ghz, it even goes down to 4.4 and 4.5 ghz at times

What motherboard do you have ? 

Asus z390-p

Also, I forgot to mention that cpu-z shows the voltage as high a 1.5v, i have adaptive voltage on so that might be why.

Idle temps are irrelevant. What are the load temps?

Before overclock it would sit at around 60c on 100% load all cores, however 1 or 2 cores would spike to 90c for a bit (on cinebench r20) 

Going to benchmark overclocked now

I have overclocked my CPU to all core 5.1 GHZ with 1.320V. Idle temps when the CPU is idling at around 0-10% is at 45c to 50c. I am using a cooler master AIO water cooler.

will this build only function as a HTPC?

Yes

Budget (including currency): £1500

Country: United Kingdom

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Viewing 8k 24-30fps footage 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

We are converting one of our old storage rooms into a cinema and I want to know what type of PC we need to play this back. I think an intel i5 7th gen and a high end GPU is good, but not sure though.

Should be part of the install, look in your start menu.

FAHControl.

Or on your taskbar, click on the FAH logo, then click advanced control.

Thanks!

3 minutes ago, lewdicrous said:

Not from the web client, you do it using the advanced control app.

Configure > slots, then click on the GPU slot and click remove.

At least that's the way i know.

Where is the download for this, all i have is the FaH installer, i tired looking around for a downloads page on their official website but could not find it

Remove the GPU slot from advanced settings

I saw some posts on reddit and stuff saying this, but i dont know how you acsess advanced settings? It is not on https://client.foldingathome.org/

How do i make it so folding @ home uses only my CPU?

its just a discussion im not going to build such a pc i just want to know what others think about bare minimum

Gtx 1060, i5 9th gen and 8GB of ram

Probably it's fine: https://superuser.com/questions/1030382/broken-connectors-pins-on-graphics-card

Ok, i think the issue is the one in my.old post so i am going to reinstall the system into the case 

Is this contact pin which plugs into the PCIE slot broken?

I get the 3 beeps and no video output. RYX 2080 super

I'd probably do it. Shouldn't cost and take that long. However, if you want to switch the case anyways, why not now?

Have you got a link to a video or picture guide on how to remove & replace the standoffs, never done this before         

2 minutes ago, startrek03 said:

Additionally I'd never buy a PC from that system intgrator again, if they're doing such stuff. Forgetting or using the wrong standoffs is more than a fatal mistake and shouldn't be done by any professional system integrator. Especially beacause standoffs are delivered with the case and therefore should fit.

I got it from cyberpowersystem, I think i have a 1 year warrenty. Should i just fix it myself or use the warranty with them?

Just now, startrek03 said:

Basically you have to remove the motherboard and then the stand offs. Then messure how long those stand offs are and how much longer they'd have to be. Knowing the messurements and the threading of the stand offs (imperial/metric) just buy new ones online. They should be pretty cheap.

Is it worth doing this or is it safe to wait until I purchase a new case & a new PSU(current one is a Inwin 650W which some people have said is not good) since if i opt to fix it now I will have to do it again in around a month

That's probably because the OP removed the screws to take the pictures.

 

The card is in the second PCI slot (the first one is an x1 slot), so the 2nd and the 3rd cover have to be removed. That's all fine!. I think what happened is, that the GPU I/O shield doesn't have a right angle. I'll just make a sketch:

Obviously, the card won't be able to sit properly.

 

That's just what I could see on the pictures. Proof me wrong if necessary.

 

Exactly.

Thank you for this! However the Case is the bit that is bent, the IO shield is fine. The case screw pins is pointing outwards to the rear and down to the motherboard.

Maybe it's a case of wrong motherboard stand offs. Than the I/O shield of the mainboard might not fit completely as well.

Actually, one of the SS ports is misaligned(and also some of the ports and correct matched up) and i need to pull it backwards to plug stuff into it. So i think you solved it here! Thank you for this. I am not sure what i have to do fix this though since i did not build the PC myself

Just now, dizmo said:

Nope.

So i dont have to remove the top one?

Just now, dizmo said:

Third picture down. You can see the card is slanted.

That's not it. There's clearly a PCI slot above the card, meant for the first slot in the back.

There is no PCIE slot above the one that card is currently plugged in. Did the people who built my PC mess up?

Your top PCIe cover is not removed. The GPU is bending and it's probably not screwed into the correct place

Oh yeah, I am going to remove that one. Where is it supposed to be screwed into place? There is no support to screw it in towards the front of the case

2 minutes ago, dizmo said:

Your card is also off center if you look at the rear of the case.

It looks like you've either messed something up or your case is damaged.

I dont see it ? which part of it off center?. I think the case is damaged since it was pre built and i only removed the GPU to clean off some dust

9 minutes ago, 5x5 said:

Wait you want to leave it hanging from the PCIe slot? That's a horrible idea. The cooler on it is HEAVY and it WILL bend it a LOT. Not safe at all.

is there something where it supposed to screw in on the side next to the front of the case?

Just now, 5x5 said:

Remove the other rear PCIe covers? There really shouldn't be any reason for it to not plug in. Did you forget the motherboard stand-offs or something?

It was pre built so no idea, the only other pcie covers to remove are below the GPU one so it would not do anything

This is the picture of where it is screwed in

Oh no, it is screwed into the place where the I/O shield is, the issue is that it wont plug in fully
