Need some help about OC - 8700k - Republic of Gamers Forum - 764226

Hi !

I have a delid cpu, maximus hero X, Eisbaer LT 360 for coolong

i've tried to set up an oc profile but I have some questions about it

Tried at 48 all core
manual override
vcore 1.26
LLC 5
Cache 42/42

My temps are around max at 68 degres on some cores in game

At idle it's around 37 but i got spikes to 45 even 50 at some point when i launch chrome for example.

So i was wondering if those temps are ok and if i should tweak other settings

Example : VCCSA and VCCIO what sould i put for 4.8 and 1.266 vcore?

Also, I tried to set up an adaptive profile at the same clocks.

SVID Enabled
SVID behavior : best case scenario
addtional turbo mode core : 1.265
offset -
IA DC Loadline : 0.01
IA AC Loadline : 0.01

But the vcore for what i see in HW monitor goes from 1.20 to 1.28 . Shouldn't it goes lower on idle?

Thanks for the help

Has the ihs been re sealed? Looks to me like you need to re do the TIM between the ihs and die as those temps are to high.

Are you using liquid metal on die and a paste type TIM on the IHS?

SA and vccio are voltages for your memory controller leave ram and those voltages on auto while you test the cores.

Voltage goes lower under load which is known as vdroop. If you increase LLC which you have set to 5 to say level 7 it will droop less under load.

it has been resealed yes with silicon and i dont have tool or skill to redo this actually.

Are those temps concerning or not?

What should i get at 48 while gaming? (it was on assassins creed odyssey which is a bit CPU demanding I think) but usually its around 60c when gaming but i have to test it out.

You think it's more of an hardware issue than a setting?

I've reodered some thermal paste to rest the aio, can't harm anyways..

but i meant when idle I remember having my 4790k dropping the vcore a lot more. Now it justs goes from 1,20 to 1,28 on adaptive, i guess there is a messed up setting somewhere.

What I'd do. Boot into Windows, get 2 programs, core temp and cinebench r15.
Open them both up, right click on top bar of core temp and reset high/lows, now run cinebench and report back temps.

Core temps is better than HW monitor?
I have done cinebench i don"t remember the temps, will redo it when i get home.

I did an occt but for 15 m only I had to left and it went up to 70 but it was more around 65 i think.

Is there any soft to monitor the temps but with a graph to know for how long it stays at a temp?

Any ideas for the adaptive setting?

I prefer core temp but each to there own, no idea on adaptive voltage, if your getting 60c while gaming that's ok, just raised concerns when you said it was spiking high at idle.

Here is the cinebench test on manual setting

temps look good, run cinebench again but change cores to x49 @1.35v cache @x44, if it passes and temps are below 85c increase to x50

what memory do you have??

this is working great for me 8700K 5 GHz with adaptive voltage cinebench test https://youtu.be/-K7oVqttAUQ
