Overclocking
Overclocking Performance
Overclocking then - our findings in short, our ES sample is a pretty nice overclocker. Coming from a 3,800 MHz base clock going to a steady all cores locked 5,000 MHz isn't bad. We reached a stable 5,000 MHz as bootable and need 1.325~1.350 Volts for that. Below, you can find a handful of results we ran with the overclocked settings as explained.
The same settings as used in the previous benchmarks have been used here as well. The overclock entails nothing more than increasing the multiplier and CPU voltage.
Considering all motherboards overclock the same with our Core i5 7600K @ 5 GHz we use the reference results to show the relative performance scaling.
