8Packs no BS testing Intel 8700K and Z370 with Delid 5ghz and above available from OCUK.

Tomorrow starting this I have some 5.2 now, delid done and retest on cpu done. Your cpu can do 5.3 cinebench 1.37V ;-)

Guys you need to chill in general this stuff is not a two minute job. So far zero returns there is a reason for that.
rome wasn't built in a day bespoke stuff takes time . We live in a society where it's now now now . They'd soon be in uproar if they're cpu wasn't tested enough and not hitting bin as advertised
 
All backorders on binned cpu's now shipped. 5g 5.1g and 5.2g in stock.

I'm excited to be receiving my 5ghz binned chip together with my Asus ROG Maximus X Hero and Team Group Dark Pro "8Pack Edition" 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-28800C16 3600MHz tomorrow. It has been a long time since I overclocked (my current 3700k is many years old), so could i trouble you to suggest the bios settings that I should adjust and the values that I should try please?

Are you sure it's definitely mine :P? Mine is the bundle with the 360 asetek aio.
 
I have observed something similar with Guild Wars 2. So far I just assumed that the game just uses AVX. It is heavily CPU bottlenecked after all...
 
0213 was what my board shipped with.

Ah, because the support site only lists 0505 and labelled it 'First BIOS' I didn't think anything of it. EZUpdate said no updates available, also. I just checked the date on the site and it says 0505 was uploaded two days ago (14/10/17), so I'll check my own BIOS in the morning and see if it needs flashing. Thanks for the heads up. :)

Just updated bios to latest (0505) and its the same, as soon as more than 2 cores are loaded up it uses the avx offset frequency.

Worth a try, I can now run my memory at 3866 without having to use the "tweak" option in the dram timing menu.
 
Is your vcore being displayed correctly with the new bios? Even when on 5Ghz 1.3v manual CPU-Z shows 0.6v for me!

Yes, its shown perfectly since day 1. Are you on latest CPUz?

Also, 5050 appears to have broken nvidia audio lol. Tried reinstalling GPU drivers etc etc but no luck. Posted on ROG forums hoping for a reply.
