hi

i am going to buy i770k cpu
msi z270 xpower gaming titanium motherboard
evga supanova 850 g2 power supply
nzxt kraken x62 liquid cooler
samsung 960 evo 250gb ssd
wd blue 6tb
evga supanova 850 watt g2
evga supanova gtx 1080 ti founders edition graphics card
corsair 780t full tower case
g900 mouse
k70 rgb rapidfire mechanical keyboard
windows 10 usb flash drive

my question is could i hit 5.3 ghz clock speeds with these components

if not what components could i change to hit that speed and also get very high test benchmarks thanks marcus

This is what's known as the Silicon Lottery.

If you get a binned chip then maybe. If its a poor overclocker then no matter how many volts you give it it might not even hit 4.8.

But 5.3 is right on the limit without extreme cooling. (from what I've read) That X62 will not be man enough for the job You will want a full custom loop.

Why is 5.3Ghz so important? Is it just for ePeen?

If you don't mind buying pre built this will hit 5.1Ghz...

where can i get a binned chip from and what version and what specific cooler with these components will hit 5.3 ghz thanks

Ok, after a quick bit of research regarding this.....

The difference between 5Ghz (and even 4.8 tbf) and 5.3Ghz in real life usage is quite honestly bugger all.

All you will get is more heat and more noise and reduced CPU lifespan. Oh and obviously more female attention*.

Sorry I can only find a pathetic 5.2Ghz from OcUK...
