Overclocking

Similarly to the Intel i7-5960X test we’ve got three batches of results for you today. Firstly we have the Corsair LPX running at 2800MHz, as seen in the left hand CPUz. Then the G.Skill at a massive 3000MHz, albeit the XMP costs us 60MHz of CPU performance.

Retaining the G.Skill memory and pushing it, along with the Intel Core i7-5960X, as far as they will go is an absolute breeze on the ASUS Rampage V Extreme. Even if we went a little too far the Safe Boot button saved our arse, and we ended up with a barely believable 4.5GHz on the i7-5960X with 3133MHz DDR4. If that doesn’t shake your bacon then we don’t know what will.
