Just some general questions about overclocking...
Current rig:
asrock z77 pro3 motherboard
"maximum power" 750w psu
nvidia geforce 660ti
16gb ram
intel i5 3570k
hyper 212 evo cpu cooler
thermaltake chaser mk3 case w/ 4 120mm fans
1. currently in my rig is a 750w generic psu, will it cause stability issues and should I be worried about it failing and potentially damaging my components?
2. With my asrock z77 pro3 motherboard I used the predetermined oc setting for 4.2ghz, what are some good suggestions when it comes to voltages and should I not bother using the default oc settings?
3. What kind of OC have you guys got out of a 3570k using a fan cooled setup?
Thanks for the input, and before you reference me to stickys I just thought I would post before I go to bed, I will defiantly look through them tomorrow.
