Now I am running 3440x1440 ultrawide, an RTX 2080 that I added several months ago, and a brand new kit of 32GB samsung B-die memory arriving in the mail today (Before its fully discontinued everywhere) so Ive decided to revisit overclocking my system to try and pull every drop of performance out of it.Īt 3440x1440 resolution, with graphics settings on the high side in most games, the gap between my 7700k and say, the 9700k at the same clock speeds is actually pretty tight. That was over 1 year ago, and at that time 4.8ghz and a 1080p monitor it did all I needed honestly. I eventually just said screw it, set it at 4.8, dialed in the voltage and left it alone. I did not want to run an AVX offset because I always noted in my testing that the cpu would toggle to the avx offset constantly in games, often ping ponging between my real frequency and the avx offset. Back when I first built this system (I was one of those who bought in to a 7700k build right before 8700k showed up, so that was annoying) but I stopped my overclock on the 7700k at 4.8ghz entirely because I couldnt get Prime 95 stability due to AVX instructions causing failures beyond 4.8ghz. It is an i7 7700k, MSI Z270 Mobo, MSI RTX 2080. I recently decided to embark on tweaking my slightly older system the last few days.
