Hi guys, I just built my first gaming computer, and I'm trying to find a clear, simple, step by step guide for overclocking my Intel Core i5 4670k. I just need a guide for now because my sshd is faulty and I'm getting my replacement soon and installing the os on it.
get the os on there first then start by adding a small amount of power to the north bridge then add small steps of power and clock speed increase but slow and stress test every time you make a agistment
If the build is brand new I would let everything "burn in" for about a week. That way if something is faulty, you will know before overclocking. The thermal paste for cpu/gpu also needs time to cure. I wouldn't mess with voltages until you read up on it. Should be fairly easy to find max clocks on stock voltages though.
Start with increasing multiplier, ignore voltage until it becomes unstable or you bsod. You don't want to raise it by a lot. The northbridge doesn't need much with newer intel cpu's, most everything has been dumped on the cpu itself. Not sure how much sense my post made, I have been awake for too long now.
