  • @maxemore
    @maxemore 4 роки тому +1

    It seems to me that 5GHz is not really worth it with the i7-8700K, based on that you need overvoltage (1.3V+) to achieve it, and the full load temps will be very high, even with a beefy AIO, resulting in throttling which damages overall performance. I think 4.7GHz using enhanced turbo boost is a much safer and easy overclock to achieve (it's all automatic + low voltage which gives low temps), and the performance benefit of 5GHz vs 4.7 is negligible. Also, for a stable 5GHz overclock without stepping into the 1.4V territory you need a more expensive motherboard with VRMs that can handle the stress. Meanwhile you could achieve a stable 4.7GHz "auto" overclock with a less expensive, mid-range board and without worrying about thermal throttling.

      Alaflam3 regular has 8gb ram, this one has 11gb ram. Regular has 2 fans usually, lower base clock, boost clock and less cuda cores; the gaming x has 3 fans and way higher specs. The 1080ti gaming x trio was shown to be one of the coolest, silent, efficient cards in that price range. They don't even have it listed most places brand new, but you can find them now on ebay.

    Another point to add, and it supports you saying keep it at 4.7ghz, some can't even hit 4.8ghz at 1.3v and up, so keeping everything on auto is probably universally a good solution. I for once got lucky and am sitting at 5ghz at 1.28v. Otherwise I'd be doing exactly what you're doing and running 4.7ghz. I also have a 360mm aio cooler. My 240mm definitely didn't cut it.

    @ettan85 6 років тому +1

    Good video! 2 points I would make though. Increasing the BCLK will increase CPU, cache, FCLK, and memory speeds at the same time. Doing this creates the potential of some other part rather than the actual CPU to be the component making your system unstable. And, you don't need to buy faster XMP ram, buy Samsung B-die such as G. Skill, Team Group etc. Essentially just find RAM that is 3200MHz CL14, give it some more juice and overclock the shit out of it. Many reports about managing +4000MHz CL17 on those sticks, but accomplishing this is also determined by the CPU's internal memory controller. I have an MSI Z370i coming my way now. I never used MSI mobo before, so thanks for your walk-through of the bios :D

    Tech Deals, undervolting the CPU also can be quite interesting. The stock voltage is rather high, it needs to be high enough to guarantee that any CPU will work, consequently usually lowering the voltage for the stock boost or increasing the clock frequency a bit without increasing the voltage is possible. Maybe that is interesting for those who like their system to stay quiet?

    I’ve been running my 8700K at 4.8 and 1.24v since day one, on air, and haven’t had a single crash or hint of instability. The AVX offset of -3 is super important, at least for me, bc the temps just skyrocket at that point. BF1 loves to run in AVX mode, so playing that game usually sees the chip hit its highest temps during gameplay.

  • @ThemisDimitriou
    @ThemisDimitriou 6 років тому +4

    Amazing video, thank you very very much. You are the main reason that I got into the coffee lake, at first I bought a Ryzen 7 1700x which I RMA it in a week because I was very disappointed, upgraded from an i5-2500 and I could hardly see any difference. Then I saw your videos that you say that i7-8700k will be really better in real life and I did the move. I could not be happier, I combined the CPU with an ASUS Maximus X Hero and Corsair Vengeance RGB 2 x 8GB 3200MHz C16 and I love it, the real-life performance is amazing, I am a trader so I run 3 monitors with dozen of browsers and apps and the system is hardly at 10% load, super silent and cool, while everything opens instantly (it wasn't the case with Ryzen, I could feel a lag).
    I have two questions though, 1) The XPM detects fine the 3200MHz C16 at 1.35v (auto), is it really safe for 24/7 use? I would prefer to work it at 2666 MHz at 1.20v (I was under the impression that coffeecake supports that) but when I set it to XPM 2666 the voltage goes to 1.346v (auto), can I set it manually to 1.2v at 2666 MHz or I can damage the system? 2) my cooler is Corsair Hydro H115i PRO RGB (yep the 280mm) at a Corsair Crystal Series 460X RGB box (I put the 3 120mm RBG on the back and top and the cooler on front, my temps are about 36C at 8-10% load at 550 RPM average), can I activate the "Enhanced turbo" and be fine?
    If you are wondering why in the hell I spend all that money if I am not planning to OC at all, my thinking was "I have the money, I will buy the best, if it can support hard OC then it should run super stable at stock configs".

    • @zeniax4841
      @zeniax4841 6 років тому

      You’ll be fine without changing the xmp settings, since you’re not overclocking anything else there’s not really any reason to be worried or mess with voltage, leave it at auto and you’re fine.
      You got a amazing build and it can handle it without problems, it can easily handle overclocking the cpu and everything too if you wanted without any heating problems and it would open tabs even faster.
      I wouldn’t recommend trying to under volt your ram.

    • @zeniax4841
      @zeniax4841 6 років тому

      And you’ll be completely fine if you use your Turbo overclocking speeds.
      You could go higher without problems so enabling turbo won’t have any bad results with that cooler. Just gonna be faster pretty much.
      Your temperatures after running at turbo speed will be higher than at stock settings. But they won’t even be close to warm enough to overheat anything. Do it doesn’t matter. You’ll be fine if you enable turbo boost.
      I’d say do it. It’s gonna make you even more impressed with your awesome system.
      Have fun and enjoy those turbo speeds! Cheers

    • @zeniax4841
      @zeniax4841 6 років тому

      But honestly.. just put it at 4.7 at all cores at 1.3v manually and then try lowering it from there after testing. Using auto overclocking settings and letting it automatically adjust your voltage is bad. It can cause unnecessary heat and if you’re worried about that, manually set cpu voltage. I’ve seen it spike from 1.31v to 1.42 using auto settings. Even though it’s stable at 1.31

    • @ThemisDimitriou
      @ThemisDimitriou 6 років тому

      Thank you very much for taking the time to answer, appreciate it. As you understand I am completely newbie when it comes to OC, the video gave me a lot of information's and made me experiment. For starters I activated the XPM @ 3200 and I got a 32% increase in mem bandwidth at Sandra, I also did stress test the system for hours with success, I got 4.3 MHz in all cores (1.2V in the CPU core with one spike at 1.216) while the temps never got above 70C at any core (at the peak of the test I had from 53C to 62C at the #3 core). If I set the system to 1.3v manually will it get below 4.7 when it doesn't need the extra horsepower? The system literally runs 24/7 and I don't need it running at full speed all time. I think I will activate the "turbo mode" (it seems that this how it's called in ASUS boards) just to test it but honestly I think I am fine at my current levels for now, I now realize that Turbo mode is essentially automatic OC something that I don't need to do now (maybe in the future, hehe). Thanks again!

    I have followed like every possible overclocking step for the i7-8800k but no matter what I do the motherboard (ASUS Z370 TUF Gaming Plus) will discard my manual voltage override and go waay higher. All cores synced running at 4.7ghz will have the voltage go up as high as 1.37 volts at times, and at stock (with no overclocking except for using XMP profile) it barely stays under 1.3 volts. Am I just unlucky with my particular CPU? Is there an important setting I'm missing? *scratching head*. Using a 240mm AIO so I should at least be able to push the system a LITTLE bit, one might think.

    Hey guys,
    I also have a MSI Z370 gaming pro gaming paired with a 8700k but the reported CPU temp in BIOS or MSI Command Center seems wrong : always lower than MB temp and even lower than ambiant temp at cold boot.
    When comparing Command Center CPU temp with temp in HW monitor they're completly differents.
    Command Center CPU temp seems aligned with a MB probe temp but not with the real CPU temp.
    Ever heard of this issue ? Is this patchable or will it requires a MB exchange?
    ex temps in BIOS when cold booting : (ambient ~23°C)
    MB : 26 °C
    CPU : 13 °C

I didn't even break 70c, even with tridentz 4266mhz ram and a liquid 1080ti @2gpm with a 120mm copper radiator heating things up big time. You don't need a large case, or a huge radiator to run fast as balls. Those AIO coolers must seriously suck. My case is Corsair Obsidian 250D. Look how small that case is, and not a single heat issue.

So you're bang on for saying for most to stick with 4.7GHz just as I feel like Intel have set that at the max turbo for good reason, anything higher and you need something far more monstrous to handle the temps.

  • @C-S-J
    @C-S-J 6 років тому

    5.0GHz is a 'magical' number that a lot of people with a chip that has the potential of hitting it will want to try to get theirs at that speed, just like it was years ago with 4.0GHz and 3.0GHz, etc.
    I got an i7-8700k in hopes of hitting that speed and I was majorly disappointed when my chip wouldn't go past 4.9GHz without thermal throttling. I got a pretty big dud for an 8700k. My chip requires a voltage jump from 1.296v to 1.375v in order to go from 4.9GHz to 5.0GHz, which would have required sub ambient cooling to maintain temperatures under throttling on my chip. My chip would hit thermal throttling in less than a minute at 5.0GHz
    One week after I built my system I ordered a delid kit. When I pulled the IHS off my chip the TIM was crusty and partially hard already. Now with liquid metal under the hood it runs happily at 5.0GHz 1.375v as a 24/7 overclock with a Kraken X52 using NZXT AER RGB fans which are suboptimal in static pressure. During long loop all core stress testing, the core temperatures maintain low 70's on average with short spikes into the 80's for brief periods of time.
    I disagree a little on the liquid coolers. You won't see a difference in temperatures between a 120, 240, 280, etc until the loop temperature stabilizes, which can take a really long time . If your CPU is thermal throttling in a matter of minutes with a closed loop cooler, going to a larger one wont help. Now if it takes half an hour or longer for your CPU to start thermal throttling then upgrading a 240 to a 280 will help or just a fan upgrade can make the difference. There are many poor 280mm coolers out there that perform worse than 240mm coolers and there are some pretty slick 120mm coolers that give 240mm coolers a run for their money. With the right fans and the right pump speed profile, you can make just about any current 240mm AIO perform better than most 280mm AIO's do out of the box.
    It's entirely the waterblock and pump setup that governs how far your overclock can get in the first 10-20 minutes, after that it's how efficient the radiator and fans can transfer the heat out of the loop. It's the waterblock and flow rate that determines how fast the heat can transfer from the CPU into the water in the loop. If you look at Corsairs current CLC's and NZXT's, they all use the same basic waterblock and pump in all their loop sizes. They all spin at the same speeds and transfer heat from the CPU to the loop at the same rates.
    I really doubt most people will get much help going from a 240 to a 280mm AIO cooler with this chip because when these things start thermal throttling, they usually do it fast, which means you need a better water block and not a bigger rad. Going to really good air cooler can help because the really good ones will transfer heat away from the CPU faster, but a custom loop with a good waterblock, pump, rad and fans will perform way better, even if it's just a 240mm radiator.

    To anyone, Newegg received some 1080ti’s in stock tonight, they sold out in 5 min. I did somehow get one a tiny bit over msrp, if anyone is interested in a New unopened MSI GeForce 1080ti Gaming X Trio, let me know. I already have 2, so I will sell it at costs to anyone interested.. It won’t be shipped to me until Monday probably.
    Thanks

    I have a 8600k and a MSI Z370 Krait Gaming MB. Overclocked to 4.6 on 1.32 volts no problem which I find safe... 52-56 degrees celsius under load

    I did the basic OC with XMP on and Enhanced Turbo on. But it also changed my Integrated Graphics Share Memory from 64M to 32M. Is this something I have to concerned about? If so, how do I change it back to 64M?

    I have the same CPU and Mobo and i have a question about overclocking that you did. What happens if you enable game boost or would you need some of the msi software?
    Like is better to OC using MSI command centre or do you need MSI gaming app on the OC option (mine only affects the cpu)
    And why does it always keep showing 3.7 ghz in the top right corner of the bios or command centre even though it is actually higher
