AVX2 vs SSE Frequency?
AVX2 vs SSE Frequency?
I'm looking into the differences between those two frequencies mentioned in the article. As a beginner, I'm curious which one is used when people say they achieve that speed at a stable of around _ _ghz. Are both relevant to my situation? I just sent an 8700k for a delidding and binning—hope it works out!
SSE is the older vector/packed math instruction set while AVX is the newer version. AVX performs better in terms of processing per clock, so applications tuned for AVX or AVX2 usually generate more heat compared to those built for SSE. Increased heat results in reduced stable clock speeds. That's why they categorize SSE and AVX overclocks separately.

SSE stands for the older vector/packed math instruction set, while AVX is the newer, more advanced version. AVX performs better by handling more operations per clock cycle, which can generate more heat and potentially reduce stable clock speeds. Because of this, programs optimized for AVX or AVX2 tend to produce more heat compared to those built for SSE. This difference explains why SSE and AVX overclocks are listed separately.
Which one is most often mentioned in discussions about people’s overclocking? How can you determine which program uses which type?
