With a GTX 680 and three monitors in the mail, I just had the "oh crap" moment of realizing that my 1055T CPU is most likely going to be a bottleneck. After three attempts of following guides with the computer failing to boot, I come here for some quick noobie advice as to how to do it perfectly, and painlessly. I've seen some people push their processors to over 4.0 ghz, but I don't think that's a realistic stable goal.
My Rig:
MSI 870A-G54 Motherboard
AMD 1055T Processor (currently stock) /w Coolermaster V8
2x2 GB "2000 mhz" ddr3 ram
950 Watt PSU (was very overkill at the time, glad I have it now)
Soon to be GTX 680 graphics
-----------------------
One more worry of mine:
I've read some horror stories about people using my motherboard. I've had my computer on (stock) for weeks at a time with zero issues, but I still wouldn't like overclocking very much if it meant a melted motherboard.
Thanks in advance.
