I tested 10 of these Friday on that cooling need delid for sure.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
No its not.8 Pack - what do you use to reseal the lid?
Glue is just too permanent.
I couldn't get past 3866, but it is stable at this speed on the Hero X.
Try using tweak mode 2 and 2T.

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.......

Hello! Pulled the trigger on your 5ghz bundle. I assume these are also delidded?
Based on the response I got from the customer service team, yes they are.
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?
Yes all.8Pack stuff are delid ofcourse.Hello! Pulled the trigger on your 5ghz bundle. I assume these are also delidded?
