Specs:
Mobo: Asus ROG Strix z390-E
CPU: i9-9900k
GPU: Gigabyte gtx 1080ti
PSU: 750w
Ram: 32gb 3600mhz
So i just finished my first custom water loop build and first build with the i9-9900k. This is going to be my first time manually overclocking and wanting to get the most out of my cpu with out it dieing out in 1 week. So far i have my overclock set to 5ghz at 1.3volts. After doing a stress test i get max temp of 79 Degrees. I mainly use the computer to stream and play games on with the once in awhile video/photo editing. When i launch call of duty modern warfare i get a max temp of about 70degress. Im wondering if this is a good over clock or would i be able to push it a little more like 5.1ghz at 1.3volts and get better performance or does it not really make a difference? I'm not to sure about the volts part of overclocking i know the higher the more heat and power it uses and not to do crazy high with it, but would i get better performance if i go like 1.25 volts and 5.1ghz or no?
