8700k and 9900k overclocking 5.3ghz

[Broken APEX49]

5.3GHZ is impossible in my environment
CPU voltage up to 5.2GHZ is possible with 1.45V level, but beyond that
It becomes impossible even if the voltage is increased to 1.6V.
This is the same for both 8700K and 9900K
Is my setting bad or is it basically lacking power capacity?
Configuration is M / B XI GENE VGA RTX1060 PSU 850W
LLC canceled level 8 C state
CPU temperature stays below 90 degrees in Core Temp
Please advice

I'm confused

Maybe you just need a better cpu.

Is that the problem?

if you have the same problem with 2 cpus and like you mentioned if you have to jump from 5.2 at 1.45 to 1.6 not even gaining 100Mz than it is game over.  Or you need to cool down your CPU temps drastically with a chilled water setup, Single Stage or beefier cooing....

The temperature does not exceed 90 degrees

that not depends.. if your cpu is not capable to do it with the desired voltage.. like leeghoofd said.. GAME OVER

What test/ benchmark are you doing?

Cinebench R15 you can pass easy settings AUTO. Manual cpu core.

8700K 5Ghz set 1.25 vcore

9900K 5Ghz set 1.3 vcore. Try for a pass on both.

Expertise not known so I'm sorry there. 53x on 9900K 1.45v is quite normal. These guys here may have 54x same volts or better. Good luck

I'm using Geekbench 3

the colder you get , the less volts it requires, that remains a basic rule

Recap:  you seem to surpass a sweet spot for your CPU, which means more volts are required for a smaller MHz gain... only way is either to find a better chip or drop temps drastically.

good tip from Avalanche: Try a less memory extensive benchmark like eg cinebench R11.5 or R15 to determine CPU speed scaling

I just fear you don't have gems CPUs there, great 9900Ks do 5.4 at way lesser voltages and stock AIO cooling....

 

Do NOT use big fonts anymore, way too agressive in a forum
