Solution R R Rdslw Jan 9, 2018 Also i5 have less cache than i7 so same Mhz result in less power. With i7 you should be fine.

Whenever you open a heavy application the CPU will 'overclock' itself, you don't need to touch a thing for it to work I suppose you have a i7 860, here's the official website for it: https://ark.intel.com/products/41316/Intel-Core-i7-860-Processor-8M-Cache-2_80-GHz As said there, it will boost itself til 3,46Ghz. You're good to go. Upvote 0 Downvote
