I don't think skylake/kabylake lets you set a separate voltage for cache (at least nothing that I can see in my bios) so it'll just have to run...
Im using a corsair H115i as my cooler. Setting my caxhe at 41, Im able to do 4.8ghz at 1.25V now for max temps of 75 stress testing, and able to...
Thanks for the reply. I played around with the cache ratio and was able to bring down the voltage to 1.25V with temps much better in the mid 70s...
I recently built a second system with a i5 7600K. Overclocked to 4.8Ghz @ 1.35V hits peak temps of 84*C during realbench (just a quick flash of...
I stopped playing about 2 years back, but I still enjoy watching NA LCS and the World's.
Good idea keeping the 950, if you bought a GTX 1060, you would have bottlenecked it with the FX 4300, and wasted money.
Your fractal design R5 should dampen most of the noise anyways, even if it does have some coil whine
No Brady, No Gronk, missing starters on the O line, No Problem. Go Pats
My skylake runs a higher OC and cooler temps than my ivybridge ever did (like a good 15*C+ difference). Stability stress testing, my 4.7Ghz...
I think the Xtreme Gaming has 10+2 power phases while the G1 has 6+2, among other slight material differences.
Precision XOC has a framerate target option that I can't seem to find in AB (not that I use the option)
Use EVGA precision XOC, or MSI Afterburner to reset your power limit% prior to starting any games.
He's not hitting 4.8 on that cooler he has. 4.4 will most likely be pushing it
Now overclock that 6600K to 4.4Ghz :D
My corsair K70's going on 3 years and everything works just fine, all LED's lit. Only thing is my W and S keys have been worn away from use, but...
Since you sold your GTX 980Ti's, going to GTX 1070's are like a side-grade for performance. I think Dual GTX 1080's would be your best bet
Wait, what? You realize the GTX 1060 has on-par performance of a GTX 980, and your GTX660Ti SLi is slower than a GTX 970 right?
He also has to make sure his PSU can handle the new CPU low power states
I would say pick up a AIO cooler for the 6600K
Firestrike is a synthetic benchmark that has really good scaling for multi-GPU. Actual games don't come close to Firestrike scaling, so unless...
