i7 77000k Overclocking temps?
i7 77000k Overclocking temps?
I always choose the most secure area between 60-65 degrees.
Personally, 80-85 degrees seems too high. Many people still run their CPUs at that temperature.
I currently run my processor at 4790k with 4.4GHz, 1.13v and am very satisfied so far. I used to try overclocking a bit but realized it wasn’t worth it anymore. As others mentioned, you might want to reset your cooler and consider better thermal paste for lower temperatures since you can get even lower at 1.25.
In summary, my temperatures are fine for me, but not everyone is the same.
91-93 appears quite warm.
Additional point, 4.8 at 1.300v? That's really impressive. Could you clarify the BCLK and Multiplier values if you're comfortable?
But 91-93 seems too intense for long-term use in my view. It feels like reseating your cooler might help.
My 6700k only reaches OCd up to 4.6, yet it barely exceeds 75C under full load with air cooling. 1.35v
I have the identical chip. It hasn't been overclocked yet, but I've observed it running a bit hot. Recently, while playing CSGO, I reached temperatures between 82 and 83 degrees, even though it's water cooled.

91-93 feels quite hot.
Extra point, 4.8 at 1.300v? That’s really good. What about the BCLK and Multiplier settings?
But 91-93 is too intense for long-term use in my view. It gets so close to needing a cooler change.
My 6700k only reaches OCd up to 4.6, but it barely hits 75C under full load in air. 1.35v.
I didn’t adjust BCLK and Multiplier, just changed the voltage and my core ratio limit.
Ken65lt shares their experience testing an i7 7700k on an Asus Tuf Mark 2 z270 motherboard using a Lepa 240 Liquid cooler and prime95 v26.6. They report temperatures around 91-93°C during stress tests at 4.8ghz with 1.3v. They question if the temps are acceptable and ask about recommended voltages, noting Intel advises staying below 1.5 and suggesting lower values for sensible users. They also mention concerns about thermal paste application and overall system health.
That is your multiplier
😛
It seems likely it's a 100mhz BCLK with a 48x multiplier.
I still believe anything above 85°C is too hot to use. Would lowering it back to stock help with temperatures? I think you should re-seat your CPU cooler.
I lowered the voltage to 1.25v at 4.8ghz. During the stress test, I reached a max of 80-83°C. Do you think that's acceptable?
