10700k speedup achieved
I managed to hit 5.1ghz across all cores at 1.315 volts, but when I pushed it to 5ghz all cores with 1.275 volts, the spikes reached up to 79 and it felt like a good investment for gaming. I’m playing games like Star Citizen and MFS 2020, and it’s working well enough. Still curious why my monitor shows all cores at 5ghz even though it’s not that noticeable, but I’m focused on getting the best performance possible.
First two cores at 5.1GHz indicates that with only two cores active, the CPU runs at 5.1GHz. When all cores are used, it drops to 5.0GHz. This gradual overclocking is worth trying. Adjust your system settings—set the 1 and 2 core overclocks around 5.4, 3 and 4 around 5.3, etc. If your 7-core speed stays at 5.1GHz and 8-core speed at 5.0GHz, you’ll likely notice your clock fluctuating between those numbers during games.
