no luck with an 8700k?

[tdeneve]

Hey i wanted to ask you what you guys think.

I was trying to lower my voltage on a 8700k at 4.7ghz. i currently run it stable at 1.250V and was hoping to lower it down a notch.
i tried 1.240V but froze in cinebench... would you consider it to be a lower end chip? I see quite a bit of people running 4.7ghz at way lower voltage so well...
thanks for your replies!

sorry i don't know how but i posted in the wrong sections and can't seem to find a way to delete or relocate it. Modos please feel free to move it or delete it so i can place it in the right section. Just let me know

Not great but not terrible. Mine is only happy at 1.26 for 4.7 all core.

Damn...i was considering delidding it (through silicon lottery i don't have the experience to do it myself) but i am asking myself if instead of paying 60$ for that, if I should not just take a dip buy one of their 4.9ghz certified and already delidded....the system is about to run on air (noctua nh-d15s) so i would like to be able to dial back on the voltage as much as possible. Granted the delidding will help reduce heat but...
