I would like to OC my ram and cpu. (ram at the very least)
Build:
Case: Cooler Master Storm Stryker CPU: Intel i7-4770k (Stock) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo GPU: EVGA GTX 770 4GB Classified w/ ACX Cooling (Stock) RAM: Corsair Vengeance 32 GB DDR3 2133 (Stock) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD5H Power Supply: Corsair 750W HX 80+ Gold Modular Storage: WD 2TB Gree & Samsung E 128GB SSD 840 PRO Optical Drive: LG WH16NS40 OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
Can someone point me in the right direction towards a good guide/tutorial on how to OC ram and CPU. Also any tips/suggestions etc would be greatly appreciated. I want to OC as high as I can, but at a safe OC that will not alter the lifespan, do damage to the hardware, or anything else. Thanks.
Just one of the many thousand oc guides available >>
http://www.overclockersclub.com/guides/overclock_intel_4770k_guide/ (its a good one, follow every word)
Google is your friend. Just always pay attention to temps and never use software to oc.
Also note that every cpu is different, what one person gets (oc) on a given voltage doesnt always mean you'll get the same result. Fingers crossed you have a good chip.
thanks for the info! got anything for ram oc? I really want to do my ram because I paid for 2133 speed and I just now learned that it is not the native speed......I enabled the xmp and it switched it to 2133 and I change some setting( i think it was performance or something like that) from "turbo" to "extreme"(i think). Thats all I changed in the bios for my ram. hoping I did something to get it to 2133 speed.
