Thanks for the this! Do you know his complete setup? (Mostly the mobo) and if he was able to OC the iGPU?

He was on some form of maximus vi, however he had all kinds of random issues like it failing to post every other reboot. Not sure how much is his board and how much is cpu. His board was a bit rough when he got it from ebay. And the cpu further flattened out the pins. Plus I wonder how well a z87 board with a pre-broadwell bios supports the l4 cache. Basically as long as you don't use a gigabyte board these cpus should work to some degree out of the box. Based on his experience I can't recomend it as a daily chip however I've yet to test it on a proper z97 board. Need to convince him to send it to me for testing

 

As for the IGP all intel HD graphics pre-lake chips can be overclocked. They've always had fully unlocked multiplier on z series boards until lga 1151 where the IGP is also locked on locked chips. (no bclk past 102.99 on locked skylake igp either as disabling the IME takes avx and igp with it). My friend managed this on water https://hwbot.org/submission/3978281_

I bought one myself (4980HQ) here's to hoping it works and is actually a 4980HQ. as for the board I bought a cheap Z87 from sapphire ($30 shipped). I doubt a Z97 board would work better vs a Z87 board, as this is still technically Haswell/Crystalwell

 

As for iGPU overclocking, I could oc my HD 4600 on my Alienware 17 R1, unlocked chip (4930MX) or not (4700MQ) but I preferred the dGPU (GTX 780M/980M/1070)

I wish I still had it so I could get a PGA version of the 4980HQ
