Hello, I am new to overclocking as it never really seemed necessary, but now my once top of the line machine is beggining to chug a little. Rather than pay for an upgrade I would prefer to simply overclock my processor. My specs are as follows:
Processor: 2,93 gigahertz Intel Core i7 940
Motherboard: Board: ASUSTeK Computer INC. P6T DELUXE V2
RAM: 12 gigs
Hard Drive: 300 gig HDD and 1 TB HDD
Video Card: GTX 295 Dual card
Monitor: Samsung Syncmaster 2443BWT
Power supply: 1000 watt
OS: Windows 8,1 Pro x64
I read that people have been getting 3,8 gHz overclocking on air and I was wondering if somebody could provide some general settings that would get me close to or at that number. I would prefer to not increase voltage as much as possible, but I understand there will be some need for it.
As a side note I use ASUS EPU 6 engine software regularly to conserve power and wonder how that would affect overclocking.
Thank You!
