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

My binned 8 pack 8700k came this morning . Just need a motherboard now. Have to wait until next week. I like the hero, but it cost a lot more then I though. Looking at the Giagbyte gaming 5 or ultra gaming?
Gigabyte should be fine if you dont want to run mems too high. M10H is a better board though.
 
I feel a bit velnerable with my 3000mhz ram now. If i can make the next mortgage payment ill upgrade the ram next pay day.
WHy this should be totally fine. Sweet spot for me is 3600mhz C16 but no need to go that high.
 
We tested 5960x solder vs Conductanaut by Thermal Grizzly and still managed to save some Temps like 3-4c or so.
 
Glade to hear it. With better cooling it's very possible to go up one bin. I tried a couple on 360 custom and both did one bin higher easy.
 
I just started overclocking my 8350k, not overclocked for many years so learning by doing as there is hardly any info out there on this cpu.

8350k, ITX, 3000Mhz Corsair RAM. I have set XMP ON, set voltage to 1.225 and now testing 4.2Ghz.

Aim is to get to around 4.6 to 4.7 and settle with that. I have a Hyper 212 cooler. So far at 4.2 I can hit 80 deg C on prime.

Not really sure what the max voltage I should use it, I've read 1.225, 1.3-1.4??

Also not sure on max temps, not going to go over 85 deg C.

I have a delid tool and the paste, but not sure if it's worth it on an air cooler, will I hit a temperature limit or a silicon limit first?

Cheers
I tested 10 of these Friday on that cooling need delid for sure.
 
Blend you need 30mins so large and small fft are used. I think in tour cooling those volts will be too much with hard load.

Try real bench as a better real world testing option.

4.8 is realistic yes with delid and or better cooling.
 
Glue no need at all if your happy with that. I personally never glue back in my own builds.
 
^^ Of course call sales get your order in and on the next binning I do the Bundles will get them first. You can have upto 5.2ghz Bin.

Anyone wanting this as part of the Elite Tier bundle with Maximus 10 Hero or Taichi, 16gb 8Pack mems 3600C16 and cooling to suit get your orders in now!!!! I will prioritise these before any binned CPUs go on our site. Just like systems also get priority.......

No the Tim never needs reapply Grizzly only one that can be relied upon for thousands of heat cycles.
 
Do you happen to know if this applies to the 4.7 / 4.8 GHz OcUK Gaming Extreme4 / DEFCON 1C Taichi bundles also? I asked Ian in another thread but he hasn't seen it and I'm itchy to order. Also (in case Ian does see this), do the binned CPUs (eg 5.0Ghz) come with normal Grizzly TIM for life so to speak, or are they liquid metal that needs reapplying periodically?
These are not delid. 5g plus 8Pack are.
 
Looks fine for air. Set llc on gaming 7 to turbo should sort these peaks out. Still completely fine though.
 
^^ No need to worry its fine mate. I tested at 1.45 still fine.... I delidded many of these myself all pretty consistent.





8Pack Dimms stable 3866 and 4K Z370 on AsRock Taichi and upto 3866mhz M10H testing 4K M10H now.
