8600k Overclock Questions

[hyperj123]

Currently running an 8600k overclocked to 4.8ghz with a h80i v2 for cooling. I also have additional fans in my case (nzxt s340) Right now under an AIDA64 load for 15 minutes I'm getting a successful OC at 1.245 V. I'm attempting to join the 5GHZ club just for bragging rights. I had a 5GHZ OC @ 1.375V but temps reached to 100 C. I just switched to thermal grizzly conductonaut and it is a world of a difference but I'm wondering what I can do to push it 200 mhz more. Any tips? I was thinking of delidding. If that's the case can someone help me on where can I get the tools to do so?

Buy the Der8aurer deliding kit.

This one

Not sure where you are from, they may have it on a US Amazon or ebay.

If you wanted to increase clocks even more after the delid consider getting a higher end 280mm/360mm cooler

either a bigger cooler or delidding would help you here (or both)

 

i have both used the der8auer delid die mate and the Aqua-Computer Dr. Delid tool and both work great, get w/e the cheapest one is.

As far as the liquid metal application goes how do I reseal it? Does the kit come with it a material to reseal it?

I'm willing to go back to air cooling. How would the Noctua NH-D15 perform on this level? I have a Hyper 212 Evo in my old rig that I can still add a fan on.

i used Permatex black silicone, did not come with the kits.

one thing to note here is that don't use to much silicone as this will create a gap between the CPU DIE and IHS.

most people don't reseal it and use the motherboard to clamp everything together.

 

Noctua D15 performance the same as a 240mm AIO if not better in some cases

Awesome thank you! I'm going to order that cooler before I delid.

@wildthing Just installed the Noctua D-15. Without delidding I'm hitting 5GHZ @ 1.375. Max temps under Aida64 load for 15 minutes is 72 C. This Cooler is a monster. Thank you!
