Overclocking
Disclaimer: Overclocking is never guaranteed so the results may vary depending on certain conditions and various hardware configurations. I am not recommending overclocking if you do not know what are you doing. High voltages may damage hardware and it will not be covered by warranty.
CPU-Z Information
We managed to overclock the Core i5-6600K to a whopping 4.5GHz with no issues whatsoever. It’s probably one of the easiest overclock I’ve done for a while, this is all to the simple to use options in the MSI BIOS.
PCMark 8
PassMark 8
Cinebench R15
HyperPi 32M
Overclocked Idle Temperatures @ 4.5GHz
Overclocked Load Temperatures @ 4.5GHz
We managed to get some very good temperatures for our overclocked CPU at 4.5GHZ. Only 46 degrees Celsius at full load … this is all thanks to the watercooling setup we used, which is comprised of all Thermaltake watercooling parts.
