Thoughts and comments on my 8700k overclock.

That's really low volts for that clock. You won the silicon lottery good sir...

 

Ever tried to push further? You have tons of room to play with in voltage and temps.

Brands I wholeheartedly reccomend (though do have flawed products): Apple, Razer, Corsair, Asus, Gigabyte, bequiet!, Noctua, Fractal, GSkill (RAM only)

The temp peaks at 52 when I stress it with prime95 but yea happy with the temps so far.

Running liquid cooling with 2 x 360mm rads, thats with my card LC as well.

Ill try for more when I have a little bit of time to stress test it.

I was able to find the sweet spot with the voltages by using this chart. While my board isnt the Taichi it gave me a reference point for voltages.So I set the voltage to 1.320 adaptive. From there it was a matter of stressing it under prime95 with CPU-z open so I could see what the CPU was "Actually" drawing in voltage which was around the 1.25-1.26. so gave it a fixed 1.28 voltage.ASRock%20Z390%20Taichi%20Overclocking%20

You are basically running the same 8700K as I do, even the revision number is the same. As a reference i run mine at 5100Mhz with voltage on auto and Hyper-Threading disabled, it usually goes to 1.288V max.

 

I am really impressed by those 52°C in Prime95 though, mine gets to 75°C with my poorly mounted 240mm AIO and I just don't wanna torture it too much.
