Kaby lake is running at 4.7 hertz with just 1.3 volts.
Hello, your i5 7600k is performing well with a 4.7hz overclock at just 1.3 volts. To see how much further you can push it, consider the power of Kaby Lake. You've already seen about a 15% boost from the i5 6600k. Let me know if you need more details.
There are mentions of 5.1GHz on the air, though this article notes a BCLK boost and a 1.5V adjustment.

I have an i5 7600k and so far managed a 4.7hz overclock with just 1.3 volts. How much more should I push this CPU? For those curious about the power of kaby lake, I've seen about a 15% boost from the i5 6600k. Please let me know if you need anything else.

i would stay below 1.35v unless cooling and temperatures are excellent. his cinebench score will match exactly, kaby lake offers no improvements. my [email protected] achieves 800 in cinebench r15. all chips will reach 5.0ghz, it's just about the vcore, and that doesn't guarantee those 5.1ghz reviews are reliable at 1.45v@88c.... i promise you, if you push prime at these specs the chip could degrade after thousands of hours.

his cinebench score will stay exactly the same, kaby lake has no ips improvements. That's what I'm trying to say. I understand he claimed a 15% increase in FPS, but I'm not sure if that's accurate either. There shouldn't be any variation at the same clocks, regardless of the bench or conditions, with identical hardware, otherwise. When it comes to voltage, 1.35 is a bit conservative, unless Kaby matches Skylake's tolerance (which I'm not sure about, since little changed). 1.4 is reliable for daily use on Skylake, and I expect similar results on Kaby. The main concern is cooling, as Kaby appears to run warmer.
The 1.35v setting could be a bit too low, but adding just 0.05v to reach 1.40v might only give you up to 0.1ghz at most. However, it really depends on the temperatures. I believe the op should jump to the next multiplier/vcore, which is around 4.8ghz at about 1.35v. It would be wise to do stability testing while monitoring temperatures. Reaching 4.9ghz might not be straightforward; simply increasing another 0.05v to 1.40v could hit a limit and require much more vcore, or it might not work. Taking it slow is the best approach. But I’d prefer 4.8ghz@67c over 4.9ghz@77c all day.
