Extreme heat using manual voltage control
Additionally, I've explored your Gigabyte motherboards in detail. An offset vcore could be beneficial, and I found a discussion about this on your forum regarding the 8700k... Refer to: https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/co...4/dwubwju/
Thank you! I completed the prime95 26.6 test and ran it for six minutes. Here is the screenshot of the hwmonitor: https://imgur.com/XAeUXYu View: https://imgur.com/XAeUXYu
I overlooked mentioning that the room temperature is extremely high due to the summer season.
I watched this video to assist with my overclock project. It covers running an 8700k at 5Ghz with 1.28 GHz, and the average temperature during gameplay is around 60°C.
Keep in mind that your components like the CPU, motherboard, RAM, and VRM differ from what's shown in the video, even if they seem alike. Adjust voltages according to your setup and expectations, as you can't guarantee the same performance as displayed. Results may vary significantly, and precision isn't guaranteed. It's normal to encounter variations such as 1.4v on an 8700k at 4.9GHz.
