G grassy New member Nov 5, 2011 #1 Hi i currently own a AMD Phenom 955BE II x4 3.2ghz and i was wondering if i were to buy a noctua nh-d14 and overclock it to 3.8ghz. Would there be a massive performance increase in most games, or not much? THANKS!

D Dolph123 New member Nov 5, 2011 #3 How old is it/Is it a C3? You will see some improvement depending on the game but not something massive. If it is a C3 you can push it beyond 4Ghz, while the older ones only goes to 3,8 even though they are cool.
