What specifically do you need help with? Are you brand new to overclocking? Is there something in particular that you do not understand?

Yeah man, I never really had to overclock a cpu , I have of course done it to Graphics cards. I am looking to hit 4.6ghz stable, so if you have some tips or can help me walk through this much appreciated. I have to write script for my next employer so I felt a bit annoyed when I was asked to build this and overclock it.

Regardless my friend did buy very nice stuff for it and I will have over a week to test it on various games etc.

Let me know if you would like to help I would send photos and video for you..

Cheers from Hon Atsugi.

Ok.

Lets try the easiest thing first. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjIweExETlI

Try to use that video to get you to 4.6ghz.

If you run into any troubles, come back. This way you at least know the basics and have the benefit of seeing an example.

I really hate doing things this way, but its better than me spending an hour writing a giant wall of text that will just end up confusing you in the long run.

I hope you have a 144hz display at least

I have 1440p tv and two other 1080p screens none of which are that nice yeah. This machine is for a client/friend. I realistically should stay focused on my python modules. Anyway I far tooo tired I will send some pics here tomorrow.

I guess if you already have the parts you might as well overclock

For those of you curious to see it.

So far haven't had much time to deal with the overclocking part yet.
