Hello,
I hope everything is going well with you all. I recently received new hardware and have been looking for a guide to help me understand how to overclock my i7-7700k on this motherboard. I’ve already updated the BIOS, and my RAM is running at full speed with XMP enabled. When I start up the UEFI, I’m pairing the i7-7700k with a Noctua DH-15 cooler. I understand it can help keep the CPU cool during overclocking, but I’m unsure about the optimal settings to try.
I’ve seen others successfully achieve speeds around 4.9 GHz at 1.3 volts. (I haven’t tried it yet myself).
Any suggestions, tips, or links would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
