Lol, that's about £100k's worth of processors you've gone through.

I found that z170 seems to struggle to get anywhere near the same level of overclock. This was with a z170-k vs prime z270-k with the exact same settings. I also believe you need a z170 board with DDR4 not DDR3 for the kaby lake.
Maybe the Z270-K has better overclocking capability. Great little board for the money! 2xm.2 as well!

Z270 is generally better on Kabylake yes than z170. This being said asrock ocf and ocfm are working great in z170 platform.
Morning,
Apologies if this has already been asked & answered. I had a quick search but could not see something.
As you offer some bundles that include a de-lidded 7700k would you guys ever consider selling just the de-lidded cpu and not part of a wider hardware bundle?
Many Thanks

Normal procedure seems to be that they will sell any that are left over when they stop selling the bundles and systems that use them, normally about the time a new processor is about to release. I bought one of the binned 4770k chips for about £90 premium when the Broadwell chips were imminent.
Sure. That's fair enough for the binned chips. But surely a delidded chip could be sold at any time?

Still no reply on the voltages that are being used for 5Ghz+.
Can you please just be straight and answer his question. Ive asked this in the other thread and it was also avoided.
What is the max voltage your shipping these set to run at 5.1Ghz 24/7?

There's been a lot of digs at Intel regarding their use of TIM. A lot of it is to do with their environmental footprint, using less toxic materials. Pitfalls of being a huge corporation. It certainly has nothing at all to do with trying to scrape any barrels.
Agree, it would be good to know. For these prices I would expect sub 1.35v.
Here's a chip that can do 5Ghz at 1.2v (courtesy of Chrisch on Anandtech)!

It's not like the delidded ones have intel warranty anymore so ocuk maybe willing to offer warranty on chips running at higher than 1.35v. If that's the case It would be nice to know.
roman binned 1000 6700K last year, caseking were selling top chips for 1000-1500 euro
300 is just getting started 
The max is about 1.375 v for 5.1 usually 1,35v or less the best I have 1.2v
I have a company that paid 10K each for my best few 5960X.

Needs to be ASDA price with a 35%+ IPC improvement out of the box or else it's not worth risking the moths escaping 
.
Near enough 50% managing 5ghz after delid is really impressive

^^ I totally get this feeling. But we have many NDA business customers who appreciate the binning and want the speed advantage.
Also the previous gen 4.8 Skylake bundles actually sold well despite this forums often negative comments. If we are giving it for free for sure all want 5.2+ CPU's.
But to get these CPU yourself you testing on average at least 6 and then if you delid you lose warranty.........here its all inclusive.

If its on ASrock the true Vcore will be actually 1.25-1.28 with DMM but still a decent chip. ASrock CPU z and software reporting incorrectly by around 80mv ASUS formula is out by 30MV or so but other ASUS boards spot on.

Wouldn't an X99 setup be the smart money at this level of price ? .. Who are these aimed at apart from people who benchmark ?
Nice overclocks but I think most are better off buying a retail chip and playing the silicon lottery at this price and hope they get a good one and delid it and if not great sell it on and buy another and hopefully get a good one. BUT again I still feel for this money get a X99 setup and be happy.

IPC on Kabylake is better for single or low threaded applications than X99 where the threaded stuff is better due to core count
