Here is the link....
Intel Core i7 8700K @ 5411.88 MHz - CPU-Z VALIDATOR

I was hoping for slightly better idle temps, I have shaved about 3C off idle. From what I've noticed the liquid metal seems to affect load temps more than idle.

The last 3 digits are supposed to be the position on wafer.. No mine isn't on that list but some the L730C291 are in the 5.3-5.4 Ghz list, cool!
