Hey guys,
I recently built my first PC, with an i9-9900K. The OC process seems overwhelming so I've used the Intel Extreme Tuning program and have only messed with the Processor Core Ration. I haven't had much luck going over 4.6 ghz without my PC completely shutting down. I know trial and error is part of the process, but I wanted to know if you have any tips.
Another question I had. The 9000K is baseline 3.5 ghz, and without changing stock settings, I noticed it automatically goes up to 4.5 ghz when I'm tracking its performance in Task Manager. Why does it do this if I haven't OC'ed?
Here's my specs:
CPU: Intel Core i7-9700K 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Corsair H150i PRO 47.3 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Motherboard: MSI MPG Z390 GAMING PRO CARBON ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory
Storage: Samsung 970 Evo Plus 250 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB Founders Edition
Case: Corsair iCUE 465X RGB ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: EVGA 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply
Thanks!
