Hey guys,
So I'm getting into the OC territory now, as I wanna try and get my 7700K to 5.0 GHz.
Now I watched Linus oc guide on the 6700K and did the same, I changed the profile to XMP (although task manager still says the speed is at 2333MHz even though it's a 3200MHz speed kit and it says that in the bios under XMP. Any idea why that is?) and then I changed the CPU ratio first to 47, then saved and booted fine into windows.
Then I tried 50 just for the sake of seeing if 5 GHz were possible and booted into Windows but blue screen. Then it rebooted and loded into Windows just fine.
Although I now then reset everything back to default, except for the XMP profile.
As I now want to ask you, since I'm a total beginner at this and don't want to mess my stuff up.
If it blue screened at first on 5, but then worked fine when rebooted, will a bump in voltage keep in stable? And in that case how much do you reckon I'd need it at?.
This 5.0 GHz I of course want to achieve at a stable 24/7 operation. Although not entirely sure about voltages, stress tests (what programs, how long test runs etc etc) etc.
Keeping in mind I've tried looking and still doing it, but also wanted to ask in here for advice on how to go forward with this.
My specs if needed are the following:
Intel Corei7 7700K
ASUS STRIX Z270I Gaming
32GB (2 x 16) Corsair Vengeance Blue LED 3200MHz
ASUS 1080 Strix (non OC - Will try later)
Samsung 960 Evo 1TB
Corsair HX750i
Corsair H100i v2
Windows 10 Pro 64
Any help/advice etc is greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Chrazey
