Looking for good overclocker i7 4790k

[Lowriderz]

Hi guys. I currently have a very bad i7 4790k chip that can barely do 4.5ghz. Anyone knows where i could find tested chips that can do 4.8-5ghz with aio watercooling?

Thanks for your reply. I agree with you that I should focus on building a new system which I plan to do but probably not this year as I want to wait for the next bugfree architecture and for lower ram prices. I'd like to squeeze out a bit more power out of my current system as for the work I am doing currently some extra power could be a big help. I don't think it would be too expensive if some power user decided to sell his old and tested 4790k... did it in the past where I purchased the X3380 chip that had the world record in overclocking and it really offered a lot for quite a cheap price. 4.5 I don't think is that great considering it's just 100mhz over the base speed. I'd say it pretty much sucks

So does anyone have a 4790k that is a tried and tested good overclocker and can do 4.8-5ghz with 1.3ish volts?

i think mine is pretty decent , delided and ruining 4.6 at 1.197v , i'm sure it can do more

edit: i would look for 5775c as fast as 7700k and faster in some games due the mounts of l4 128 mb cache , not sure why this cpu was overlooked so badly , and bad/wrong reviews .

Really? You think it's faster than the 4790?
