Intel Core i7-7700K @ 4.9 GHz OC TESTED
This piece of silicon has been carefully pre-tested by our extreme overclocker Elkim and guarantees a 4.9 GHz frequency bandwidth using all 4 cores and 8 threads.
How to get a better bit CPU?
Quartz lottery? One of the main features of today's processors is that it is not a piece, like a piece. Differences in the final frequency after overclocking make up to hundreds of MHz above the base frequency. While one piece will handle a maximum of 4.8 GHz, another bit up to 5.3 GHz.
Elkim thoroughly tests our processors and looks for their limits.
Thanks to our professional approach and years of experience, we have the only opportunity in our market to offer you guaranteed OC pieces of processors.
Overclocker Elkim
Hello, I deal with looking for hardware limits and moving them forward. To my hand I take the most extreme methods of cooling, such as liquid nitrogen, which reaches -196 ° C.
Correct choice of components for our selection bits
The basis for high frequencies is the combination of well-chosen components. Here are our tips on how to get a guaranteed tie on this page.
Powerful cooling is alpha.
This processor was tested and cooled using the NZXT Kraken X62 .
Use a high quality paste
Equally important is a great heat-conducting paste. For us we recommend Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut or Kryonaut.
The right chassis omega
The select piece of processor deserves the best! Differences in voltage intensity: the frequency of the various base plates is in the order of tens of millivolts. After years of experience, I recommend higher models from the Republic of Gamers from ASUS. We test our pieces on the ASUS MAXIMUS IX APEX .
The right juice
A good source plays prime! If it matters, how good and stable the motherboard gets. Our selection bits are tested on the Seasonic Prime 1200w Platinum. In this case, there is not so much about the total capacity but about the quality and overall design of the power supply. Personally, I recommend the Seasonic source clock, especially the newest Prime series is excellent for overclocking purposes..
Our tips for reaching a guaranteed tie
- In UEFI, use kernel voltage settings for manual mode where power is always more effective than offset or adaptive mode.
- In ASUSdesek LLC level 6, use the External Digi + Power Control to prevent unwanted drops in voltages that could interfere with overclocking stability.
- Kaby Lake processors are very sensitive to temperatures, so use minimal-quality AiO water cooling of 240 mm and a high-quality heat conductive paste. The stronger the cooling you get, the better you get. This is related to a well-tuned airflow in your case, if the airflow is not optimal, neither the processor cooler will work as it should.
- A good resource that can deliver stable and accurate tensions is the foundation of everything. We recommend Seasonic sources from the Prime series.
- Counting our selections requires at least basic experience and insight into the issue. Keep in mind that this is not a plug and play affair, to refine the overclocked system into stable mode requires patience and hard work.
- All processors were tested for at least 1 hour in ASUS's demanding RealBench stress test, which also uses AVX instructions.
Final recommendation
In order to achieve a guaranteed tie, it is necessary to keep our tips as close as possible, or to get closer to you as much as possible. Keep in mind that an imperfect combination of components may cause the guaranteed frequency to fail. The differences in the motherboards make tens of millivolts, which goes hand in hand with the increase in processor temperature and the demand for cooling and the overall result.
