Overclocking


For the overclocking phase, we already know that our CPU (Intel Core i9-10900K) is capable of having all cores operate at 5.3GHz so this is the target which we aimed for with XTREME.

We’re pleased to report that XTREME was able to configure all 10-cores on our 10900K to 5.3GHz, we did need considerable voltage though – at 1.38v. Such voltage nudges up the temperatures to the concerning levels (85-90C). We also experienced some vdroop – which does seem to be common with GIGABYTE motherboards.

Nonetheless, this is still a great achievement!
