I've recently followed a online video to OC the 8600k to 5Ghz and was surprisingly easy to do. I then read a few threads on various places on other people doing this to find some people can't or are struggling. This made me wonder if I've done it right? Mine is currently at 1.31v core with AVX...

Hi Guys I currently have an Asus Strix H370 F Gaming and an i5 8600k. I have all cores synced to 43 in the BIOS, speed step enabled and C States enabled. In CPUZ, the processor can be seen to decrease in frequency and boost to around 4.07ghz but not 4.3ghz. I have power settings set to...

Hi there Well were all the AMD loving, it is only fair to make you guys aware of what I personally consider to be an ultimate and dedicated gaming setup. By that I mean its sole purpose in life, absolutely maximum FPS whilst gaming and ONLY gaming. As such my I present you Intel Coffee Lake...

My annual "I'm bored of my system" moment has recently happened and therefore I have decided to refresh my system. Contrary to many people these days, I've decided to upscale from ITX to ATX. This is because I feel the current crop of ITX cases have too many compromises for the system I want...
