Overclocking help with 8600K

[Delmo]

Hello!

 

I just finished building my new PC with 8600K yesterday and started to overclock today. I haven't had almost any success and I'm wondering that am I doing something wrong or did I really miss the silicon lottery. I've followed the guide by der8auer and his video about 8700K.

 

My system right now has:

 

i5 8600K

Asus ROG Strix Z370-F

Corsair LPX 3000MHz 15cl

 

I can only hit 4.6GHz with vcore on 1.28 and it seems that it is impossible to go even for 4.7GHz. I've booted with 1.3vcore with 4.7GHz but the Prime95 test fails immediately and the same goes on even with 1.33 vcore.

 

I don't know am I missing something but I've set AVX to 3, disabled Asus EMC, set the XMP, LLC on 6, Long and Short power duration on max, CPU core/cache at max, CPU cache ratio set at 42. And after that just played around the core voltage.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

You could have higher Vcore voltages.

MAX 1.45V  but this is not so safe and can damage the CPU

try something between 1.35V-1.41V

Also Start at 1.35V and only increese by 0.01V per time, look at temps when you set new Voltage.
