BEGINNER OVERCLOCK i7 8700K

[Ballie]

Dear sir/madam,

 

Recently I bought an i7 8700k with watercooling kraken x62 with max temps of 62 c when 100% stress tested. So I decided to try and overclock my cpu. All the tutorials on how to overclock an i7 8700k user cpu-ratio inside of the bios, which I can't find, only ring ratio is the one I see. My motherboard is: Z370 GAMING M5 (MS-7B58)

 

Thank you in advance and I would like to hear from you soon!

If BIOS isn’t working for you, you could try the intel XTU software utility within your OS.

dont use software, use BIOS. It will be called core multiplier or something along the lines of multiplier, a good starting point i would say is 4.9GHz (49) wwith 1.30volts on the core. Then play with voltage try lowering it until our not stable.

Dear O9B0666,

 

Here are some pictures of my bios settings, I do not see anything related to core multiplier, or I'm just blind...

 

Anyone knows what to do to overclock in my case?

Adjust cpu frequency might be it.

 

 

it must be on your board Idk not familiar with MSI. That sounds right wish someone could jump in and help you more. Check you tube videos

check your PM's, i sent you a link which will be everything you need, same mobo and cpu. Im not sure how this forum is about posting stuff from redit or overclockers forums so it's in your pm.
