I'm about to start building a new gaming PC (will only be used for gaming) and wanted to know which is the better CPU for gaming - the 8700k or the 9700k? At the moment the price between the two is pretty similar with around £20 difference so will buy whichever one I'm going to get better...

Hi All, Bought my 7600K a few years ago (when 4 core i5's were cool). I've noticed in games like R6 Siege, Battelfield, and even Resident Evil 2, are maxing all 4 cores out and I feel like im not letting my new Sapphire Vega 64 get to it's full potential. I've looked at loads of videos, and...

Hi guys.. I made a 7700k rig in 2016 but I am thinking of moving now to 8th gen. Need an entirely new pc because old board of asus z270a is only compatible with 7th gen only. So this is my budget. $2300 max. Want to build a gaming rig. My previous rig specs: Asus z270a board Intel 7700k...

So this is my first ever cpu overclock, I have been following a guide but have a concern I'd like to address before I go any further. I have been raising the clock speed bit by bit using HWmonitor & cinebench to test, I haven't had any crashes yet, but I'm currently at 4.8ghz with 3.20v yet...

Hi guys, As per title, will this allow me to check POST/BIOS before water cooling the whole system? The cooler doesn't look up to much, and the 8700k is notoriously hot! https://www.overclockers.co.uk/intel-115x-stock-cooler-hs-007-in.html Just need a basic cheap cooler as it won't be used...

Hi, I recently bought an i7 8700k and am trying to overclock it to at least 4.7GHz. Unfortunately I can not get it stable at anything past 4.5GHz even at 1.4v. This is using fixed voltage. I am using OCCT to test stability and so far I have only got to 4.5GHz using 1.3v. Another thing I've...

Hi, Not so long ago, I purchased the i7-8700K and was looking forward to a new high-end build. Unbelievably, the CPU has bent on one side after installing the Corsair H115i Pro RGB. I didn't use any excess force, installed the processor using the standard cross formation and I can't believe a...
