i7-3770K (3.5GHz) 8MB
ASUS® P8Z77-V LK
8GB KINGSTON HYPERX BEAST DUAL-DDR3 2400MHz
Corsair H100i
So I need to OC my CPU, as I mainly play MMO's which are very CPU dependent. With updates to games over the last few years I've noticed my performance going down slowly. It's got to the point where I've been considering upgrading whole PC, as I cant seem to find any CPU upgrades available for the motherboard I have due to the socket.
Considering I dont really have the money to buy a new PC, or motherboard and CPU for that matter (mainly because I'm saving for a new GPU), I thought of having a go at boosting my CPU.
I gather the cooling I have for it should be sufficient enough, am only looking to get it up to 4.0GHz really, anything more would be cool but possibly not needed.
Any info, tips, advice and or links to walk through would be much appreciated!
Thanks, Alex.
