Help Needed to Overclock
Help Needed to Overclock
should i configure each core individually? first core at 47 seconds, then 47th, 47th again, and so on up to the sixth.
none of the videos achieved the best performance with optimal outcomes.
the system becomes unstable, screen flickers after a few minutes, and stressing the CPU or memory leads to crashes as well as benchmark failures.
i believe this forum isn't helpful for me since overclockers.net is a better platform, and many expert overclockers provide live support.

Um...I am surprised that no one mentioned your cooling solution. To put it blatantly, it sucks
It beats stock, enough for medium overclocking. He also said "Virtualization as well as Daily Computing", he would be better off getting AIO water cooling with 360mm radiator when he tries heavy OC.
He should also add more fans to his chassis if it's running with only 1 or 2 fans.
First off, if your going to do a medium overclock, you may as well not do one. Second, some people are not comfortable AIO. Third, a medium overclock would be in the range or 45ghz. Considering, 47ghz is the turbo boost for that cpu, and 45ghz boost 3 cores already, you would not see much of a difference. Really, the lowest logical overclock for this chip is 4.8ghz. However some people can't even get it above 4.7ghz
These cpu run very hot. Under heavy load temps would be running into the high 80s and possibly 90s celcius with that 212. While yes, the max operating for the cpu is 100c. Even so running it at these temps on a constant basis is not good for it. Most experts at overclocking prefer mid 70s tops, though under 70 an is an even better idea.
Though I have a different mb I will make some bios pics to show you how I got my 8600k to 5ghz. Again I stress, you really need better cooling. Also, there is no optimal,. every cpu is different. Every cpu overclocks different. Two i7 8700ks will not necessarily overclock the same.
Oh ya. Go get this program. Free version left side scroll down. Good for monitoring, temp, voltages, usage. Mush simpler interface then Intel extreme blah blah blah. No you can not overclock with it. Strictly a monitoring program. If your going to overclock do it in the bios. That is the only proper way to learn.

Chronological sequence of images adjusted. Switching from easy to advanced mode is active, with xmp enabled. Instructions updated to avoid exceeding 48 before better cooling. Loadline Calibration applied to maintain stable voltage per instruction set. The following step may not be essential for your setup. Adjust CPU voltage settings accordingly. This approach functions well for me; I estimate around 1.3v for the LLC, though it's a rough estimate. Good luck!
