Figured I’d post my stock 14900k R23 scores. Seems to be on the higher end of what these cpus get for not overclocked. Looking to do a mild & safe overclock, looks like I should have a little room to go hopefully! System does pretty much instantly spike to 100C on full usage even with good cooling, so not much further I could go but just running most games normally it hits 50-60C & stays pretty well in that range. Just used the stock Intel settings in my motherboard for the turbo boost no overlocking yet as well!

Just for reference, specs I built are an Arctic Liquid Freezer iii 360, MSI Z790 Edge, Corsair 64gb DDR5 6000mhz (2×32).

    Default power draw is 253w. If you’re going over that you probably don’t have the bios updates that prevents the chip from degrading and/or aren’t using Intel’s power limits.
