There would be nothing spectacular about it (well, despite the fact that it is a world record for OC Core i7-8700K), if not for the fact that it was achieved on an older Intel chipset, i.e. the Z270. The chipset on which the Coffee Lake processors were not supposed to work due to changes in the pin layout. However, we have written about this for you more than once, but never in such circumstances. Intel defended itself with the fact that the aforementioned pins were modernized in terms of power supply. However, this is easily denied with just such a record.
Returning, however, to the Core i7-8700K overclocking itself … this one was not without a few changes. We are talking about turning off half of the physical cores (from 6 to 3) and hyper-threading technology. Of course, using liquid nitrogen to cool the CPU and the power section. The procedure itself focused on increasing the multiplier to 73.0, without any changes to the base clock. The system worked with the ASUS ROG Maximus IX Apex Z270 motherboard and two DDR4-4000 memory modules.
