Thanks for sharing @cryptolaxy. I'm planning to try overclocking my i9-13900KF soon and see if I can squeeze out some more performance.

That's awesome, good luck! I might give it a shot as well once I gather some more info.

I've been able to successfully overclock my i5-13600KF with no issues. The gains were noticeable in my gaming and content creation workloads. It's definitely worth trying out if you have the time.

@oetscher did you have a chance to check out that TechReviewer article I mentioned earlier? It could help you understand more about the overclocking potential of these two CPUs.

Yeah, @cryptolaxy, I took a look at the article. It's really informative! The i9-13900KF definitely seems to have an edge in terms of overclocking capabilities compared to the i5-13600KF.

That makes sense since the i9-13900KF has more performance cores and a higher base frequency. I'll be keeping that in mind as I experiment with my CPU.

Thanks for all the input, guys. I think I'll give overclocking a try on my i9-13900KF and see how it goes. Fingers crossed!

Good luck, @oetscher. Let us know how it goes! I'm curious to hear your results.

Same here, good luck @oetscher! And if you need any help or advice along the way, don't hesitate to ask. We're all here to help each other out.

I'll definitely keep you posted on my progress.

Good luck, @oetscher. Remember to take it slow and be patient with the process. Overclocking can be a bit tricky at first, but with practice, you'll get the hang of it.

Appreciate the advice, @DannehDub. I'll make sure to go through the process carefully and learn as much as I can from the experience.
