Is the i7 7700k with a 5.2ghz voltage stable and safe to use?
Is the i7 7700k with a 5.2ghz voltage stable and safe to use?
Hi,
Your delid 7700k OC specs are as follows: cache 4.856Ghz, bclk 179.87, ram 3597Mhz, fclk 1798Mhz, vcore 1.43, vccsa 1.328, vccio 1.272, vdimm 1.368, pll 1.328.
It runs at 5.216Ghz with a cooler from Corsair H115i and temps are within range. Are these voltages safe for long-term use? I’d like your opinion on whether it can last at least three years.
Your Vcore is quite high. For best results, the maximum recommended Vcore should be 1.4. Refer to Section 8 - Overclocking And Voltage: Intel Temperature Guide.
CompuTronix: sk2536, Your Vcore is quite high. For better durability, the optimal maximum Vcore is 1.4. Refer to Section 8 - Overclocking And Voltage: Intel Temperature Guide - sk2536:... temperatures are acceptable... What does that mean? How did you conduct the test? At what room temperature? CT I use realbench for stability, with maximum temperatures around 80°C at 25°C ambient. I ran a 5.3 at 1.47V for some time before reducing it to extend lifespan... I require at least three years from this setup. Posted for views by expert overclockers in ToMS.
Request from sk2536: Inquire about the maximum VCCPLL CPU PLLL voltage for Z270/Z370 models?
Hello,
I need to confirm the safe voltage limits for VCCPLL and CPU PLLL in the ASRock Z270 motherboard, especially for overclocking stability.
I'm using it for my BCLK overclocking setup.
