Overclocking an i7-6700K

[EliteJcoombs]

I have a Corsair H100i V2 to cool my CPU, and I am looking to overclock my i7-6700K, with an EVGA 650 watt Supernova 80+ Gold, any suggestions on clockspeed/voltage? I was thinking maybe 4.5 - 4.7GHz?

It depends on your chip, but try 1.3V for 4.6Ghz and stress test. If it suits your need, then lower voltage as much as you can while it's still stable under stress test. If you want extra speed, increase Voltage by 0.5V and 100Mhz, stress test, repeat.

Just as a point of reference, I run mine at 4.6 at 1.25v. It can go higher, but then the voltage starts going up. I think I hit 5.0 ghz, but at like 1.45v and my temps were in the 80's, which I didn't want to do for 24/7. It is fun to play around though.
