Kaby temperatures?

Between die and ihs? Absolutely liquid pro is way to go, waste of time using an ordinary Tim, liquid pro is metal and you can use as much as you like unlike Tim where you need to go sparingly.

That's a golden chip you've got there 5.3 at 1.36v!
 
Hi all. I bought the 7700k a few days ago and my cpu temp change by 10c higher when i used the XMP profile for my memory i was wondering is this normal for kaby lake cpus ?. Thanks
 
Is that a laptop chip though or a desktop one? Is it soldered on!

No such thing as a soldered 7700k :) fully socketed CPUs and GPUs on this one :)

XMP can mess with some of the voltage values setting them way higher. Write down the settings and try booting it with those speeds and timings manually plugged in.
 
^^ cool well that's erm cool!

I also dropped the llc from level 1 to level 3 (Asrock board) and got a 5c drop.

Temps now under aida64 spike to 65 but for the most part stay under 60c. 4.5ghz at 1.185. I had to bump the voltage a little as it was unstable during some games.
