Hey, so this is my first time oc'ing, and I've gone with the i5 8600k. I know (from guides/internet) that most people get to 4.9/5ghz on this, but for now I'm happy with a 4.8. However, there's 2 things that worry me:
One, I didn't meddle with LLC at all, I don't know if I should or if it's necessary.
Two, I did the overclocking part with the Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility, so I can't figure out if the voltages are fine. Here's a pic https://imgur.com/Bebv1kB -- the system IS stable (at least so far, did some aida 64 and prime 95 tests as well as the intel benchmark/stress test included in the program and well some gaming and everything seems fine), but the LAST thing that I would want is to decrease the life duration of my cpu, as I've saved a loong time to afford this machine and I don't want to even think about replacements.
The worry is that, the voltage seems to go higher under load than whatever I set, "higher" as in to 1.31/2 max or so, I don't know if that's an issue or not.
PS: mobo is a asus prime z370-a.
