Aug 9, 2017 5 0 510 Hi all, Recently purchased the above along with Asus rog strix z270g mobo. I did originally want to go with the d15 cooler but it wasnt in stock and was told this was the best thing. Just wanted to get advice on where my first overclock should be at? And what settings needed to be changed? I'd be pretty happy with 4.6 and 5ghz on Intel boost Solution I think you were told wrong. The NH-U9B is similar to the current NH-U9S. Noctua has a tdp chart for its coolers. http://noctua.at/en/tdp-guide Your I5-7600K is a 91w processor. More with overclocking. The chart would indicate low overclocking potential. I would return the cooler in favor of one of the new s variants if I could. I do perfectly fine with a well binned [email protected] using a NH-U12s. Your results will vary, depending on your luck in getting a good chip. Here is what you might expect: As of 6/19/17 What percent of samples can get an overclock at a vcore around 1.4v. I5-7600K 5.3 samples exist, unknown % of occurrence 5.2 16% 5.1 27% 5.0 52% 4.9 72% Sort by date Sort by votes
