What did you do to confirm stability of that overclock? I know they make improvements in refining the silicon over time, but that's a really low Vcore...
Coffee Lake | All Core SSE Frequency | All Core AVX2 Frequency | BIOS Vcore | % Capable |
8700K | 4.80GHz | 4.60GHz | 1.375V | 100% |
8700K | 4.90GHz | 4.70GHz | 1.387V | Top 99% |
8700K | 5.00GHz | 4.80GHz | 1.400V | Top 83% |
8700K | 5.10GHz | 4.90GHz | 1.412V | Top 49% |
8700K | 5.20GHz | 5.00GHz | 1.425V | Top 17% |
8700K | 5.30GHz | 5.10GHz | 1.437V | Top 4% |
| | | | |
8086K | 5.00GHz | 4.80GHz | 1.400V | 100% |
8086K | 5.10GHz | 4.90GHz | 1.412V | Top 94% |
8086K | 5.20GHz | 5.00GHz | 1.425V | Top 65% |
8086K | 5.30GHz | 5.10GHz | 1.437V | Top 15% |
That's
Silicon Lottery's binning statistics for the 8700K. Even the 8086K, which is just a cherry picked 8700K, doesn't have that low of a Vcore recorded for 5.0ghz.
That's why I have to put into question what some people are actually doing for stability testing.
