I honestly have no idea of overclocking.
I have a Asus ROG Maximus VIII Hero (this one: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0126R4F8W/)

I can try to reset all my BIOS settings to stock and update the bios version if that helps.

edit: i reset all bios settings and put it under full load. This is the temp result (http://prntscr.com/ivtly4)
Now it runs at 1.41 Volts

Thanks! I guess it's that or a used one from Amazon

Seems like the newegg one also comes with a mousepad, and it is new -- but have to wait for a rebate card, vs. a used one that has no wait and no mousepad (that I wouldn't use)

Oh, you got me there. I didn't change their default values, here's the exact model, running on this motherboard.

He said he used the PcGamer High end build guide with some changes. He swapped the 1080 to a 1070, the SSD's to a 1TB SSD, he changed the case to a MasterCase Maker 5 Mid-Tower and ordered everything form Amazon

So overall I'm guessing this is his build;

  • CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K - $350
  • GPU: GeForce GTX 1070 - $450
  • Motherboard: Asus ROG Maximus VIII Hero - $215
  • Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws 4 Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR4-2400 - $145
  • SSD: 1TB Samsung 850 Evo 2.5-inch SATA - $317
  • CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series H100i v2 240mm AIO - $97
  • Optical: LG UH12NS30 - $52
  • PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G2 80 Plus GOLD - $141
  • Case: MasterCase Maker 5 Mid-Tower Case - $178

    Coming to a grand total of 1945$ add shipping to that and you're looking at pretty close to 2 grand.

    This build is fucking retarded though.

    First of all, you can actually buy a a goddamn prebuilt with almost the same specs for about 400$ cheaper. That HP is just the first one I found, there are dozens of other prebuilts ranging from about 400-100$ cheaper with no real performance loss.

    Yeah it's a prebuilt and has bloatware and all that shit, but in terms of performance it's actually pretty much equal to the authors build.

    Second, you could just go for a more reasonable part list.

    Swap the 6700k to an i5 6500 with the stock cooler and you'll cut 250$ from the price.

    Even an i5-6600k with a hyper 212 evo would cost you about 260$, saving almost 200$

    Swap the ridiculous motherboard to something decent for about 100-150$ and you're saving another 100$ right there.

    32 gigs of RAM is overkill, you could easily go for 16GB DDR4 2400, and save another 70$

    Dump the optical drive, who the hell watches BD movies on a PC anyways? If you really need a DVD drive they're like 20$

    Swap the ridiculously high end case to something like Fractal Design R5 and save another 50$. R5 is still an excellent and fairly high end case, you could easily go for a 50-80$ mid-tower and save 100$.

    I would also swap the 1TB SSD to a 256gb SSD and a 2TB mechanical drive which would be about 160-200$ saving him another 100$. but I can at least understand that someone wants the simplicity of just having a single drive.

    With a few simple changes he could save about 450-650$ without losing any performance whatsoever in gaming, and that's without hunting for cheaper prices from somewhere that's not Amazon.

    He said he paid about 100$ extra to buy everything from Amazon, so with an updated parts list and using PCpartpicker the price drops down to 1171$ so about 770$ cheaper than the authors build and with no real performance loss.

Yes i have also looked into it but i can get the Asus Z170-A for 144€ and the Asus ROG Maximus VIII hero is 198€. I live in europe not UK so newegg is not an option unless i want to pay customs charges.
