Hey guys, just gotten a chip from silicon lottery that claimed to be oc to 4.8ghz. As im currently using H97 mobo, wonder which of the z97 mobo can ensure that I get it to 4.8ghz?
I would more worry if you have cooling for the 4.8G overclocking. My i7 4790K at 4.5G is fine at 1.22V in everything (no crashes) but the temps in the new prime95 could hit 95C with a true copper heatsink and push/pull noctua fans. Now in other programs it doesn't hit 75C but those AVX extensions sure jack up the temps.
