I got a 14700KF from here and it's a bit of a dud. Memory will not go past 3800 15-15-15-28-2T no matter what settings and the default core clocks require 1.3v to be stress test/game stable.decided to pull the trigger on a 14700kf...should be here by tonight
when you say from here....do you mean not from ocuk?I got a 14700KF from here and it's a bit of a dud. Memory will not go past 3800 15-15-15-28-2T no matter what settings and the default core clocks require 1.3v to be stress test/game stable.
My 12600KF memory OC to 4000 16-17-17-28-1T with out issue. I'm hoping a future BIOS will help but I'm not getting my hopes up.
My system
Asus Z690 TUF D4 Wifi BIOS 2802
2x8GB 3200 CL14 B Die
360 AIO
Voltges for my memory OC are
SA 1.1v
Vram 1.5v
VDDQ 1.3v
looking at the settings you would think there is some headroom. Will be interesting to hear your experience.
From OCUKwhen you say from here....do you mean not from ocuk?
I actually bought mine elsewhere so will let you know what I findFrom OCUK
I have tried. I have been as high as 1.45v SA 1.5vddq 1.55vdimm. Backed off the timings. Even some more vcore.Bump SA
I think Jayz2cents was saying that DDR4 on these chips is a bit weird, results not as good as DDR5 not sure why.I got a 14700KF from here and it's a bit of a dud.

The G-skill 7200Mhz CL34 is a decent enough kit and can be had for £150which ddr5 kits are people using on the 14900 , just about to finish my purchase. pref would like 64gb at fast speed but i know 32gb kits are the only 6000+ so may have to go 32

Intel Core i9-14900K Review - Reaching for the Performance Crown
Core i9-14900K is Intel's new flagship with clock speeds of up to 6 GHz. It's actually clocked even higher than the 13900KS, thanks to an extra 100 MHz when more than two cores are active.

TBH They are not that offensive, compared to what I thought they would be. Ja, you have little to zero chance of getting 8000+ working on a 2DPC board and XMP doesn't always work getting up that high so it needs a bit of tweaking. Not sure about picking them up as I have already pushed way past that on my 8200 sticks but you never knowyeah that is a nice kit but may be a bit if hassle trying to get it to run at full speed on a 4 dimm Z790 board ( non refresh ) The price will also be eyewatering i imagine at the same price as the 14900k but yeah will be rapid for sure, you done a buy yet ? picked up a 14th gen and new Apex or waiting for the KS ?
looks like the sa voltage is high as per usual on msi motherboards, and idea of what voltages to tweak to get some lower power usage
