Hi NIK111

Intel says 1.52v, I've had my delidded 7700k at 5.3GHz cache at 5.0GHz with 1.52v but it wasn't completely stable, 1.52v puts it pretty much at 91 watts.

As long as temps are ok I don't see why you can't run it up to 1.52v, your motherboard should give you a cpu over voltage error if you try to boot with more than 1.52v.

I have the BCLK at 312.50 too. 🙂

I'm not as hardcore as Nate. I tend to keep mines around 1.35V. 🙂
