So i have a new i7 9700k and a z390 elite mb. I have a 240mm corsair hydro h100x which should be good enough to oc. The stock speed is 3.6ghz, how high do you think i could go?

Your limit will depend on how good your chip is.
As of 12/07/2018
What percent can get an overclock at a somewhat sane 1.360v Vcore.

I7-9700K

5.1 27%
5.0 72%

Keep your vcore to a safe level and keep your temperatures to 85c under stress test conditions.

Don't get greedy, the 9700k is a beast at stock.
