This video is still a classic for my rig i go back to. I just got 5.1ghz again. Replaced the mobo w another maximus hero x and reused the 8600k. 32gb 4000 mghz c14 gskill ram with 12 10tb hdd in storage space set up. Thanks for the video after all these years mate
Thank you bud. I got mine to 5.1 ghz following your instructions. It can probably go higher but im ok with this. www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/12474024
How do you know that your 5ghz is stable on non AVX programs? You set it to downclock to 4.7ghz on AVX programs for stress testing such as prime95. You literally can't tell if it's stable at 5ghz on non AVX applications, unless I'm missing something?
On all cores section in uefi set 50 value, cpu cash 45, long power duration 120 and short power 150, voltage, you can use offset or fixed mode..in offset set 50 and fixed I would go to 1.350 or even higher..avx profile level 1....these are settings for z370 asrock extreme 4 mbo. Test stability of your cpu in prime95 for 24 h, but if temps exceed 90 degrees, stop with test and go for lower cpu clocks...
i heard this mobo over volts stock chips, this is what someone wrote on pc part picker ::: ISS (Initial shipment stack) it is ultra aggressive on it's voltage provisioning at STOCK frequencies to the chip. I've been seeing (and it is widely reported by users) that it provides 1,4v with optimized defaults or ISS settings. I've personally seen it throw the mid 1,5's which is definitely not good. That power level is for running at 5,4-5,6 GHz. This makes a basically stock chip that's already warm, run even hotter than normal, with idles at 50C (!) I would recommend advanced users to manually set VCORE, LLC, and switch off MCE for this purpose. XMP settings also provide alot more voltage than is normally required by your DIMMs, but could be easily remedied. I would suggest to start off your VCORE with lower - mid 1,2V, on adaptive mode set with a negative offset. Also, remember to keep LLC @ 5 or 6 and IA DC + IA AC load lines to 0.01, to keep the voltages that you have manually set tight. ++++++ is this true? im new to pc building and i plan on getting an 8700k but do not want to over clock just yet. i dont want my chip running on agressive volts. if you could answer that would be great

No problem I'm pleased it helped you. If you ever upgrade I've got some good settings for the 12th/13th gen intel cpu's

5.1 That's brilliant I'd definitely be happy with that
So if this fails, say i set voltage too low what happens? if it crashes i just hit clear cmos and reboot right?
lol after 6 years it didnt fail, 8700k still going strong
@lovecchio420 excellent it's still a great cpu 😂👍👍
My 8600k needs 1.3 just for 4.7ghz
Run prime95 to see how stable your cpu is and temperatures...
I've already done that its extremely stable

Its never crashed once and it's been months since I delidded it. That's how I know its stable. Every test I've tried it passes!
Bro !! I have 8600k, Captain 240EX RGB and Strix z370 E gaming is it safe for me to follow this tutorial?

How come my core voltage is not changing in cpu-z after I changed it and saved it in bios? It reads 0.672 V even though I changed it to 1.35
You have to check under full load
Long and short duration package power limit is in watts... you're making the power limit of a 95 watt processor 4095 watts?
Jason Utter I've coped these setting from one of the best overclockers In the world. I wouldn't worry about m8
Great vid but what ram are you running on that board ?
Peaky_Blinder G.Skill Trident z
Help me, i have i7 8700k and maximus x hero wifi, my vcore is 0.640, no more, whats the problem? :( sorry for my english, im from México
Your voltage is just half so you're running at 1.28v
R G it's cpuz problem
toonnut1 thank u, its problem cpuz
PePe Garcia. Try HWinfo or Hwinfo64. My CPUZ doesn't show me any voltage. Try HWinfo and see if it shows you a higher Vcore.
I have the same parts as you, besides the ram, and used the same settings but my pc froze and blue screened after a few seconds
That is unfortunately what we call the "silicone lottery."
increase voltage
yes but you run prosesor all time at 1.3 you need dropdown with adaptive!
did you try adaptive voltage how much its on desktop for u?
im at 47 at 1.2 (need up bit) but i want to voltage to drop
DONT EVEN TRY IT , i fucking hitted 1.5v with adative mode lol , fuck that shit xD

du Bb I own a similar board. Just turn off MCE and use manual vcore.
Follow this and now cpu won't boot.. What to do?
4.8
If you have access to uefi bios, just reverse bios settings to default...
