Hi guys.
I just bought the i7 8700k and Asus Z370a motherboard.
I´m using a pretty massive air tower cooler.
Now, I have no idea about overclocking so I used the ezy-overclock wizard in the BIOS and didn´t touch anything else.
I can see in CPU-Z that the core speed is now just above 5 MHz with a bus speed of 103 and the memory is running at 4426 MHz (corsair DDR4 2666MHz)
This is all much higher than what I expected and I´m a little worried that it´s too much for an air cooler.
Thoughts? Thanks!
