I have written overclocking guides for every single Intel CPU since Sandy Bridge, and usually made it easier on myself by using one motherboard and one CPU. Compared to pre-FIVR CPUs such as Ivy Bridge/Sandy Bridge, Skylake has a comparable number of input rails, five of which are pertinent to this guide. Regardless of the impact of this linear regulator, there are now many voltage rails the motherboard must provide the CPU instead of just one. While the FIVR isn't being used in Skylake, it does seem that an integrated linear regulator is present in Skylake (according to David Kanter of The Linley Group) but is disabled in the cores but not in the uncore (uncore means "not the core"). Haswell and Broadwell both employed an integrated silicon-based voltage regulator (FIVR), which allowed for single rail input from the motherboard and better control over internal voltage domains. Many in the industry love to use the analogy of cars to explain usage models for enthusiast hardware, and in this case, that analogy holds true. The truth is the inner feeling of accomplishment that comes with running your hardware faster than anything sold on the market is almost as important as the utility gained from the boosts in speeds. Overclocking has become not only a way to gain extra performance, but also a way for users to customize their hardware and make it their own. Since the olden days, overclocking has changed. Overclocking began years ago as a way to get that little extra out of your computer hardware, "a free upgrade", as many have put it. Introduction to Skylake Overclocking Overclocking: What and Why? Stability Testing, Delidding, Crashing, and Throttling.
