Can you overclock a i7 860?

Gary actually handled the overclocking of the 860 before it got into my hands, thankfully this sample seemed to fare better than our first i7 860. The rule of thumb with Lynnfield appears to be 3 – 3.3GHz overclocks at stock voltage, 3.8GHz+ is possible with additional voltage.

Does i7 support overclocking?

Do I own an overclockable processor? Intel designates its overclockable CPU models with the “K” suffix. These overclockable models land in the Core i9, i7, i5, and occasionally, i3 families. Intel has also released special-edition models like the Core i9-9900KS that support overclocking, but those have become rare.

Is it safe to overclock i7 9700K?

For the Core i7-9700K, we hit 5.3 GHz very easily, for a small bump in power and temperature. The best bit about this overclock is the 4.7 GHz value: by using our own voltage settings, we reduced power consumption by 41W, almost 25% of the total power, and also reduced temperatures by 24ºC. That’s a safe idea.
