i7-6850k 'Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0' ?

[digitaldreams]

Upgrading my cpu from 5820k to 6850k and heard of the above to push cores to 4ghz without overclocking.

Any experiences ?. Lots of talk on the Intel page but no download ??

Thanks in advance !

Windows will automatically download the driver and app , basically its poo and doesn't work properly. -https://www.anandtech.com/show/1033...6900k-6850k-and-6800k-tested-up-to-10-cores/2

Just overclock in the bios , but for gods sakes set Vccsa manually as this is the one that kills broadwell-e chips very easily especially when running xmp

If you have an ASUS board have a read of this - https://edgeup.asus.com/2016/get-be...ell-e-processors-asus-thermal-control-tool/3/

Adaptive overclocking depending on usage and temp.

its not possible without without overclocking, if the CPU is running passed it rated speed then its been overclocked this it just done by BIOS for you(but its a dirty OC).
my old 6850k with set to run at 4Ghz all cores would use loads of Vcore, i could run 4.4Ghz(all cores) on the same Vcore that BIOS used to run 4gbhz all cores.

Thanks guys !. The Asus thermal control tool looks interesting. I was hoping for something more intelligent and automatic tho..

Just set multi of 44 and vcore of 1.3, done

Yeah pretty damn easy to overclock to 4.4

You could even set vcore higher then keep lowering it

What this man said

What clock speed would that result in ?

 

[Minstadave]

5820K to 6850K is a pretty marginal upgrade. Youd be better just overclocking the 5820K.

4.4ghz

 

[Minstadave]

4.4ghz

Which your 5820K would have done just as well in all likelihood.

 

[koooowweeee]

Should get a 5960x like I did. Runs everything sweet

5820k does. overclocked still a very good cpu. as others have said just do 1.3v and with good cooling unless you have a stinker it should do 4.4.

It was a simple upgrade that will reduce power consumption while idle (left on while out) and give a bit more performance in games. Last processor upgrade I'll do on that board. Bought second hand, will sell the 5820k and recoup at least half of the cost back. I'd rather not manually force an overclock as reliability is important too.

Then the only option is full stock settings

Imho it's the most reliable way of overclocking on the X99 platform just use adaptive voltage for the vcore , set SA voltage manually and gradually work your way up from 4.2 ghz .

However Broadwell-E overclocking is broken in windows 10 these days in either software or hardware overclocking , you need to make sure you delete mcupdate_genuineintel.dll or windows will ignore any settings and just run at sock speeds.

PS. Software vs hardware overclocking, your trusting that the software never screws up , which it will and it does.
