A Kaby Lake Xmas in january

Wow.. can't say much..but wow. A very nice system you have build. I'm not going to guess how much $$$ you put into this but sure was tons. Really nice.

With this build, I am really curious about the performance with  high-end add-ons.  Say, a PMDG, Aerosoft or FSL at KSFO (by FlightBeam), with Northern CA by  ORBX... and a 50% traffic. P3D settings of at least 85%. This is what I enjoy, I currently get around 22fps in VC, in this scenario sitting on the runway. (I'm limited by VAS)

I have an Intel 6700K @ 4.7Ghz.  Sent it al the way to 5.0Ghz but there was no significant or noticeable improvement, so I left it at 4.7Ghz. But any way, I'm curious how well a 7700K performs under heavy P3D load.

LOL... I have the best job in the world (by flight simulators fans standards)... try to guess what it is... :)

Thanks.. I took lots of time and work but at the end everything is fine...

Obviously a pilot ;o)  Go on then, really upset me.  What do you fly and who for?

Noticed in your photo of your delidding stuff, a tube of "super glue". 

 

I've never seen super glue used to reattach an IHS to a PCB before. Black thermal silicone yes. Is super glue safe for a PCB?

You have a trust fund and are currently unemployed so simming time is unlimited.

I fly 737NG (-700 and -800) for a panamenian company... (they are very picky about posting stuff with their name)... but if you google it you'll find it...

Flight simming is a way of life to me...

It is safe only if you use a micro drop to secure the IHS corners... If you look at the Rockit Cool webpage it says that is safe... so I went for it and it worked...

Damnnn, did not get an answer. Hummm, too bad; it leaves me wondering.  Would love to see how this Intel's 7700K  performs under those (^) conditions. Oh well.

OH!!  That's my dream!!! 

On another note, my Kaby Lake is coming in this week!!!  My son's computer went to the virtual heavens...so I gave him my "old" 4770K.  He plays Ark Survival Evolved and loves it on that system...

Deal is, I get a new Kaby!!! Happy Birthday to me!!  LOL!

Great man!!! Happy Kaby Lake BD to you... My previous pc had a 4770k OC'd to 4.6GHz and to me is a huge difference specially using heavies in large cities... if you OC the cpu to at least 5GHz you'll a happy camper...

I might do what you ask... few days ago I was playing with the "shadercache=off" setting and I must say I'm impressed. With that setting ON and with the latest nvidia driver I usually started with 1.0gb ~ 800mb remaining on the runway at KSFO and when landing at KLAX I end the flight with FSUIPC alerting me of low VAS (less than 300Mb)... Yesterday I did the same flight but with that OFF with all Orbx NA regions except SCA and NCA and on runway 28L had a VAS of 1.5Gb remaining with the PMDG 737-800 and after landing at KLAX on the gate changing internal and external views constantly ended up with 950Mb ~ 900Mb remaining (using driver 376.33 but in W10 it shows up as 376.53)...

That's the plan.  

I delidded the 4770k and was able to get 4.6GHz myself.  Pretty damn good processor.  It's been going for about 5 years now, and I cleaned up the old thermal paste and replenished it with new stuff just before I gave it to him...dropped it another 3-5C.  Hopefully he'll get enough years out of it that he can buy his own next time!!

So, I plan to delid this new baby and see what I can get out of it!  Can't wait!

A delided 7700K is just awesome... I'm trying to OC to 5.2 or 5.3... Sometimes I think Intel make the 7700K just for P3D :laugh:... I've manage to OC the mem to 3866Mhz with 1.4v... Oh... that bring something over the table... I have 32Gb 4133Mhz ram but using XMP profile voltage of 1.35v I only get 3600Mhz... If you want faster than 3600Mhz... lets say 4000Mhz or full 4133Mhz you'll need 1.5v for the ram...

That the part of OCing I hate...memory!  Lol.  The faster you go on the CPU, the harder it is to OC the RAM.  With the 4770K, I was only able to keep it at 1600MHz or it became too unstable.  I was OK with that as I had pretty low latency anyway.

I only bought 16GB of 3000MHz Ram, so we'll see how it goes.
