I have a 6700k, asrock z170 gaming k6 motherboard and 16gb of corsair 3000mhz ddr4 being delivered today. I was wondering how different this setup will be to overclock compared to my old 2500k? Anyone got any tips?
Thanks for the tips guys
Cooling should be fine as i have a massive noctua nh-d14.
I'm reading about adaptive mode? Is this the same as the voltage offset? I know on my 2500k i have the voltage set to wind down as the clocks drop when not under load.
Ok, will leave that one alone, cheers
Will probably build over the weekend. Fingers crossed everything works ok. Bit worried about windows 10 having a paddy.
More worried about getting it reinstalled and activated as of course there is no key as it was a free upgrade from 8.
I think you can assign the licence to your microsoft account?
Would you recommend a clean install? Or does windows 10 deal with a motherboard swap?
I'm thinking probably a clean install.
Parts have been confirmed as delivered, so i can have a play soon.
Hoping to get a 4.6ghz overclock.
Cheers
If you want to dive right in and be daring, perhaps start off at 4.6Ghz but with the vcore set to 1.350V and see how you get on.

I may just do that
Lol good stuff. If you're struggling to get stable with 4.6Ghz @ 1.350V then perhaps bump it up to 1.360V and see how you get on, I wouldn't up the voltage anymore than that though as it will generate a lot more heat.

All up and running ready for some tweaking
Had to do a microsoft online call to get windows reactivated though.
