You can also try overclocking other components like the GPU, CPU, or RAM.

I increased my CPU speed from 8600k to 4.8ghz at 1.4v (delidded) with AVX, no need to worry your CPU is bad. My GPU went from Gigabyte 1080 to 2ghz, and the RAM upgraded to GSKILL 3600 with a 17GB case. I also tried overclocking my monitor, but it doesn’t support higher refresh rates.
Thanks! I aligned the CPU cache with the OC speed. Added a little extra boost. Really useful!
Shoot. The system is acting up with instability. OCCT stopped working in just 15 minutes—probably due to RAM or cache issues. The real twist? My OC memory passed the overclock test but failed the OCCT CPU stress test... what a puzzler. Right now, I’m still trying to figure out what’s causing it.
Or high temperatures... RAM or CPU. Ideally, the more you boost performance, the cooler you should keep things running for stability. This covers not just the RAM but also the memory controller and CPU temps.
I secured the RAM stability but the cache remains unsuitable even with a 0.2v boost.
