Core i7-13700K Overclocked to 6000 MHz With MAG Z690 Torpedo EK X | SkatterBencher #50

In today’s video, I overclock the Intel Core i7-13700K Raptor Lake CPU up to 6 GHz with the EK-Mana MSI MAG Z690 Torpedo EK X motherboard and EK-Pro water cooling.

Raptor Lake processors provide a lot of room for performance tuning and overclocking, especially when paired with water cooling. By using a low-end Z690 motherboard, I hope to illustrate that this previous-generation platform can still push Raptor Lake to its limits.

That said, tuning Raptor Lake doesn’t come without its own challenges. I will do my best to explain how it works, and I hope you enjoy the video.
