i7 6700k with cryorig h7 overclocking?
i searched on the net and couldn't find any specific answer.
is there someone who can tell me is it possible and how far can i go OC with this?
i was thinking about max OC 4.5GHz, and what FPS should i gain without OC-ing i7 6700k.
i7 6700k with r9 380 everything on max settings

That nobody can answer you. Every chip build is different. Some can be clocked higher and some lower, it's pure luck how far you can go.

So you have to try it on your own and test it with prime95 after each OC step if the clock is stable and the CPU doesn't run too hot.

ok thanks! i'm just into overclocking, and what do you think should i7 6700k will perform ok in arma without OC-ing (steady 60 fps in SP is ok for me, and 30-50 in MP)

I have my i7-3770k OCed to 4.4Ghz and do have around 30-50FPS in MP, but that also depends on the mission itself. That FPS is what I get on Invade & Annex.

i'll just wait two more days for hardware and test it step by step, it is the only way.
i live on croatian coast and summers here are like in hell, temps up to 40 C, i belive that will also affect OC temps and how high can i go.
anyway thanks!

I had that exact same setup before I upgraded just a week ago.
Stock 6700K will give you 50-65 fps in most situations. Kavala is -10 fps typically.
Now as far as the OC goes, I have pushed my CPU to 4.8 with a fairly stable 90-105 fps with about 60~70C. However I found it to be 100% stable @ 4.4 running at about 70-75 fps with about 55-60C.

Yeah I know that already. :)
How much RAM did you get?
Good luck with your new rig, mate!
