overclocking guide for i7 9700k
overclocking guide for i7 9700k
I purchased a Z390 Aorus Pro and a Kraken X73, allowing for better overclocking compared to my previous AIO which was only 120mm.
I aim for a 5GHz clock speed.
I've tried before but the PC would shut down and restart, so I reset the CMOS.
I set Vcore to 1.35, AVX enabled with offset 0, and turned on XMP.
Still no success.
If anyone has advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
Every CPU varies slightly, making a full 5.0 all-core performance challenging. I recommend a solid overclocking guide and carefully follow the instructions. The link provided offers detailed steps. Testing shows AVX loads can be very demanding; you might need to add some offset to maintain stable temperatures. For instance, my older 7700k needs around 1.416 volts at 5Ghz, which is significantly higher than typical recommendations. It has been removed and is now using custom water cooling.
