5 GHz 8600k

Hi

 

So I got my new pc with a 8600k and a 212 evo. After a bit of overclocking trough Intel extreme tuning utility, I find myself with an oc of 4,8 at 1,375. With the included benchmark and prime 95, max I am getting is 74c. Could I push further?

No, you shouldnt push it any further with a 212 Evo. You will need a beefier cooling solution to push it further.

No, bad idea. You need to go to Antarctica for anything cooler.

I mean if it's 74C, regardless of cooler, OP could go up to 85 and still be fine.

 

The 212 EVO is anything but quiet at max fan speed though. It sounds like a car's radiator fan in my experience.

So I built a 8600k and i7 8700k system for two people (Just as a favor) and overclocked it for them. The cpu's are literally the same thing, i7 just has more threads enabled. However they overclock almost identically. I was able to get a stable 5.0 on the i7, but the temps under full load where flirting in the high 80's so I had to back it down to 4.9. Those CPU's run dang hot.

that's one of the highest voltage i've seen for a 4.8oc, see if it's stable with lower voltage, don't push further

What would you recommend?

delidding and better cooler will give you the same OC on less voltage / higher overclock on same voltage

slowly lower ur voltage on 4.8 until it's barely not stable, then add a bit back, really doubt u need 1.375v for 4.8ghz

Yea I put it to 1.25 and it seems fine.

Well I was pretty impressed with the 212 evo. I could get 5,3 ghz at 1.4v but it was not stable for stress test, only gaming. Plus it was using way more than 1.4v sometimes like 1.45v. BTW do you know any solutions so the voltage doesn’t go higher than what I set it up?
