What is your budget?
What do you intend to use the computer for?
--If gaming, what games are you going to play, what quality do you want to play them at, and at what resolution?
Do you have any parts that you've purchased already or that you can "recycle" from a previous build (monitor, optical drives, hard drives, etc)?

Sorry maybe I phrased it wrong I'm looking for the settings I already have a build

I would suggest reading the very well written guide on our website, here:

3 Step Guide To Overclock Your Core i3, i5, or i7

thanks

ok thanks unfortunately it doesnt give any numbers for settings

Automata · Mar 31, 2012

It doesn't give specific numbers because each piece of hardware will overclock differently, even if it is the exact same model. Finding settings that work for you is trial and error. The guide will help you find those values.

thanks

ok cool im up around 3.8ghz with a coretemp around 50C with not much running

Automata · Mar 31, 2012

Can you list out your full system specs (including heatsink and exact model power supply)? Is that 50c while at idle? If so, that seems awfully high.

is it stable at those temps in prime 95? because if not, youre just asking for a hard lock or reboot
