In general it seems like the returns aren't great when overclocking the 12th gen chips. Lots of voltage and heat for small gains, which makes the locked chips look like great value in comparison. The...

100% better reworded as "sucks that it can't be easily hardware overclocked" :nod: as anyone familiar can clearly see, if anything. :cool:

No... Anybody who has actually overclocked before w/ sense would've been able to infer that conclusion based on the fact that's what my comment implied šŸ¤¦šŸ½ ā™‚ļøšŸ¤·šŸ½ ā™‚ļø

Not realistic in this case, so yes, infinitely more power if possible via software overlock.

I just bought a 12700kf, is it worth overclocking for using on heavy loads? Toms hardware said only a 4% improvement with significant heat problems.

So what? I'm pretty sure you saved up enough since that Z87/Z97 platform released around 9 years ago. You wouldn't be a bargain hunter if you weren't a member of Slickdeals would you?

It's not the hardware side, it's the software side. I upgraded my CPU a few times in another machine and it didn't effect anything. When I upgraded the whole system, it caused all sorts of issues. ...

Actually, overclocking from the BIOS gives more power to the CPU.

Clock multiplier is locked, but you can overclock by adjusting the base clock. Caveat is that you need a pretty expensive Z690 mobo with DDR5 for now, but sub-$200 B660 boards supposedly in the...

I guess my MB needs really haven't changed in 5yrs. I can't tell the difference in the audio chips, I don't need more than 7 USB devices, and I just use an M2 boot drive and spinning storage.

I do a good bit of encoding/compiling, so it's useful for me. I also enjoy tinkering, so it scratches the itch, and the resale value of the old CPUs was great. For my last CPU, I think I spent $160...

Funny for CPU bound games like CS GO, I saw a 20-25% increase from a 3600 to a 5600X. The IPC improvements were substantial. YMMV depending which applications you use.

That's one of the downsides with Intel, you need a new motherboard every gen or two. With AMD, I'm still running the same mobo on one of builds since my 1600 back in 2018. Yeah I don't have certain...
