Looking for a quick guide to achieve 5GHz on your i9 9900K without a huge AVX offset? You’ve come to the right place!

In this video I take you through all the settings to achieve a 5GHz overclock in your 9900K. Cooling dependent of course, these settings should have you well on your way to a stable overclock at 5GHz on all 8 cores.

Unlike many other guides, this video will give you a basic understanding of what the various settings actually do, and what the safe voltage ranges are for each parameter. VCCIO, VSSCA, Chache settings, SpeedStep, Multi Core Enhancement, etc are all discussed.

The video also discusses Manual vs. Adaptive voltage modes and the Pros and Cons of each.

We use a Maximus XI in this video, but the settings will be similar for all Z390 chipset based motherboards.
