A note for Intel Fans regarding the I7-7700K overheat issue: It seems solvable.

...Intel Core i7-7700K High Temperatures Could Be Caused By Poor TIM – Temps Improve After Delidding
The forum member who goes by the name of “RichUK” managed to acquire a retail sample of the Intel Core i7 7700K processor. Several overclock runs were posted and the user went as far to delid the chip and apply new TIM (Thermal Interface Material). The results are shocking as it may proof that Intel has once again used poor quality TIM on their processors...
The I7-7700K will arrive in January (it is said). I assume some SimHQ folks will buy one. If one is into overclocking, hopefully the article will provide some help.
