I7 7700k voltage
I have finished my i7 7700k and attempting to push it overclock to 5ghz. Currently stable at 4.9ghz with 1.32 volts, but even at 1.39 volts I still struggle to reach full stability at 5ghz. I'm using occt linpack for testing. Should I consider an alternative? I'm hesitant to exceed 1.4 volts, though I believe stability might be possible between 1.4 and 1.42. Would it be better to increase the vcore slightly or keep it at 4.9ghz? My temperatures remain acceptable at 4.9ghz, showing 32°C during linpack with peaks around 58°C when using AVX (with a 4.5ghz offset). I mainly use my PC for gaming, aiming for maximum performance on a 1440p 144Hz display.
