8700K boost mode when overclocked

[P1Fanatic]

I'm looking at buying an OCUK Prebuild with the 8700K overclocked to 4.9. When overclocked does the boost mode increase stay the same i.e stock is 3.7G and boost is 4.7/4.6/4.4/4.3 depending on cores used. Does that mean if overclocked to 4.9 that boost is 5.9/5.8/5.6/5.5 or is the boost feature lost / reduced once you overclock to that level?

Apologies if its an obvious answer but it's been some years since I was looking properly at PC specs and have not really done much overclocking at all.

Thanks
Simon

I'd imagine it would be 4.9 fixed on all cores regardless of load / number of cores in use. It defineitly won't be 5.9/5.8/5.6/5.5 !

Thanks. That's what I thought but wanted to double check.I'd seen some vids of games with people running this chip at 5g and it was always showing the same clockrate.
