I have delided my i7 7700k and I'm trying to overclock it to 5ghz. I am at 4.9ghz stable with 1.32volts. But even at 1.39volts I still can't get it to be 100% stable at 5ghz. I'm using occt linpack to test it. Should I use something else? I'm afraid to go above 1.4volts but I think i would be stable at 1.4-1.42. Would you raise the vcore some more or just leave it at 4.9ghz? My temps are good too,at 4.9ghz I get 32C running linpack with peaks at 58C when it's running AVX (I have a 4.5ghz offset for AVX) I use my computer for gaming mostly, trying to get the most performance I can for that 1440p 144hz monitor.
