i7 8700k Guida Impostazioni Overclock
I'm just starting out with Overclocking. I'm a competitive player in Overwatch and I'm trying to stream smoothly without losing too many frames. I'm looking to boost my PC's performance to help with that. Right now I'm at 4.8GHZ on 1.270V. I'd like to improve or fine-tune it and was wondering if anyone can assist.
Specs:
i7-8700k
ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-H
3000MHz DDR4 RAM
850W Corsair
GTX 1080
Excellent cooling with water cooler + six Corsair fans
It's not the same board, but the bios should be close to figuring out what changes are needed for a good OC. Watch the video at the 5-minute mark to see how to set up the bios. I would start by delidding and applying liquid metal, using the Rockit tool and their copper IHS. Running solid 5.1Ghz @ 1.360V all day with a max temp in the mid-60s and an air cooler, it drops to lower 60s and upper 50s when gaming.
