January 30, 20179 yr Hi, Just asking all the 7700k owners, did you see a good boost OCing to 5ghz? My current system is: 5930k @ 4.5 Titan XP 3000mhz DDR4 RAM 240GB nVME SSD. 1440p monitor. I know it's a 0.5ghz boost, will it make much of a difference? 6 vs 4 core variable in the mix too. Thanks for your help James Intel 10900k @ 5.1 HT on, Nvidia 3090, 32GB RAM @3800mhz, 1TB NVME Drive (P3Dv5.1), 1440p 48' Ultrawide Monitor.

Some contrarians will tell you it's not, but overclocking in a well balanced system is linear. So an additional 12%. So at 30 frames per second an additional 3.6 frames per second. The point is that it's free extra performance though, so why not go for it. And great fun. But overclocking isn't the be all and end all.
