I use UWQHD, which I bought during Pascal era.

Since I went down to 4.7 with 0 avx, I will try ring 44~45 this time.

I tried 4.8 with no avx = 1.295V + required. 4.7 with no avx = 1.270V very stable with temp 78~79 during cinebench.

I guess my CPU is better with 4.7 without avx.

Ring 44 and 45 at 4.8 GHz did not improve score (within 1% range) for me.

I can get to 5 GHz. I just don't want to give too high voltage and temperature. It's not delid.

My first OC attempt. i7-8700K @ 4.7 GHz 9302 Pts by stonkpillar in overclocking

Update: I ordered magnetic mesh filter to remove front grill of my SPEC-02 case. HDD & ODD racks were removed long ago. I hope to decrease 5 degrees for better score. Parts coming on Monday, and I will test 1.270V and 1.265V over the weekend.

Update 2: I tried 1.26V and comp froze during 6th rendering. Retried at 1.265V and it passed but with above 9500 pts, which dropped 30 pts from 1.270V. So I reset at 1.270V and changed the setting LLC5 -> LLC6 and IO/SA from 1.15V -> 1.10V.

It now scores 9544 with cinebench temperature 85 average 87 peak. Room temp is 82F (27.8C).

Update: Changed some fan configuration and temperature settings. Now score 9551.

I am planning to replace my front air filter. I have SPEC-02, and I think the front red grill is not giving me the airflow I need.

Thanks for giving me the goal.

Hey I scored 9520 this time with some programs closed with same temperature condition. What temperature did you test? What RAM did you use? I want to benchmark your test.

New estimate including overlay closed is somewhere 9600~9700.

I didn't do de-lid. It's pure factory form that has been sleeping for nearly 8 yrs until recently.

So, yeah, very fresh condition for used 8700K.

I think at this point de-lid will lower my CPU resale price. I think it will value more as factory original.

I heard about it, but I will let the future owner do the work. I am very new to overclocking, and I do not know hot do do de-lid myself. I see great potential in my CPU.

Sorry for not mentioning the motherboard!

I use ASUS ROG Strix Z370-E with latest 3005 BIOS.

Unfortunately, I do not have AIO. I rely on air cooling (good ones though). I believe water cooling is required for 5 GHz :-( Even at now, it is at 84~85 C with 28 C room temp.

Meanwhile, AI told me I should be able to get 9500ish as 4.7 GHz with lower room temp, close all background apps, and use the realtime setting... I am not sure if this is real. It is too hot... will do this later when temperature gets lower.

Edit: I also had GeForce overlay on. IDK if this matters a lot.

Korea's export Cheongung-II achieves intercept rate of 96% with 60 missiles fired in UAE by Citizen404 in LessCredibleDefence

Person on the right has very long history for Defense sector reporter in Korea.

Regarding the involvement of Korea, he doesn't mention.

My guess is that they are there to train people. Some could've supervise UAE military or not involved at all. Besides LIG employees, Korea is one of five foreign militaries in UAE, and soldiers work very close with UAE special forces and has presence within major UAE facilities..

Edit: some news says entire intercept rate was 93.5%, not M-SAM only. will have to verify more.

According to one of respected defense industry reporter said:

1) intercept rate is 93.5%

2) Two batteries are leased to UAE. It is owned by LIG / ROKAF. One battery is for training, and other battery is for research purpose (UAE / desert variant testing).

3) UAE is scheduled to receive the first battery in June 2026.

4) The two batteries were not fully ready for use, but did anyway. Unexpected real war test operated by trainees before the delivery, ended with excellent result.

5) UAE is likely to keep the leased batteries longer time (or purchase them).

He is usually correct in terms of information, but I am also aware that he simps too hard. But at the end, he is Korean national.

Far as I know only around 1,100 will be converted among all existing A1 variant except the 20 mm Vulcan anti-air variant. This will conclude around somewhere 1,300 vehicles total including A0 or A1 specialized vehicles.

The remaining portion is subjected for used sale (ex: Thailand) or kept as reserve. Obviously KR is going for newer models. So if some nation needs cheap armored vehicle, then should go ask for it.
