[Success] Core i7-8700K@5GHz, GeForce 1080Ti, Gigabyte Z370-HD3P

[mgregrs]

The i3-8100 has no turboboost like the i5 or i7 CPUs.

Oups I was thinking, it's not possible, then.... I checked.... and that's true

Finally Purchase and made Z370 Tuf plus. with 23k+ Geekbench without overclock.

MY BUILD:
i7 8700k with Cooler master Hyper 103
Asus Z370 TUF Plus (with old & gold ALC 887/888 Realtek Codec)
24GB Corsair 2400mhz DDR4 Ram
128 Samsung EVO
2tb+3Tb WD Drives
500w Circle Gaming SMPS
Asus 3GB 1060 Graphics
macOS Sierra 10.12.6

Everything is Working flawlessly.
Attaching my Geekbench screenshot and EFI Folder for Help.

I want to get this exact same setup. Can you post your process of installation? I've had luck with the gigabyte's but not the Asus before. I have a 270F that I still can't get to work.

since its a 6-core, does it need the voodootsc kext and the npci=0x3000 etc boot flag?

 

[oznem]

sorry, just a dumb question? Why running Geekbench 2.2.6?
Why not try the latest 4.2.0?

Hi there

Would it be possible for you to post model number on the ram you used for the build. I'm about to build myself, and would like to copy working samples.

Cheers and thanks in advance.

So can we say that the Gygabyte Z370 HD3P is ok for overclocking? Because i have in mind to get it too, according to it's quality-price ratio, but it scares me a little bit what Lokus tells about freezings... (i pretend the i5 8600k too).

@FrankRamos, please update your profile (personal details) with your Motherboard or Make/Model, CPU and Graphics Card.
