I tried to OC my non-k 6600 4.5Ghz, at 1.4V it was still just a bit unstable, I gave up, i still had a lot of thermals left...

I'm not any really big exception, there are others with similar numbers. For your CPU it sounds a bit weird.

I'm going to wait for Zen and then will make an informed desision on wish cpu to upgrade to , this one or Zen. This is like going from 4770K Haswell to 4970k Devil's canyon all over again. Me thinks i will give the 8 core 16 tread beast Zen a try for a change. Will see 🙂

i will definitly upgrade my 6600k for a 7700k, since i only have to swap cpu and still can sell the 6600k, its gonna be a cheap and worth it upgrade. hopefully i can push this thing beyond 5 ghz

..How could you possibly know it's worth it before you even have an idea of how it performs? That's some seriously flawed logic.

+ that 5GHz will hardly be obtainable under 1.45-1.5v lol.
