The 8700K comes with a full core turbo boost of 4.3GHz by default, and it can reach that speed whenever needed. When MCE is enabled in BIOS, it supports multi-core enhancement, pushing the frequency up to 4.7GHz across all cores. Power-saving features like Speedstep help prevent the CPU from operating at maximum capacity when not required. You can verify your overclock limits using Prime95 version 26.6 and run a blend test with tools such as Coretemp, Hardware Info, or Realtemp.

Only boosts to those frequencies are possible if there is enough workload initially applied.

The 8700K comes with a full core turbo boost of 4.3GHz by default, and it will automatically increase to that level if needed. When MCE is enabled in BIOS, it can push the frequency up to 4.7GHz across all cores. Power-saving features like Speedstep prevent the CPU from reaching maximum speed when not required. You can verify your overclock limits using Prime95 version 26.6 and run blend tests with tools such as Coretemp, Hardware Info, or Realtemp. Make sure the system stays below 80°C for optimal performance at 4.4GHz; it may work better with an AIO cooler.
