I had posted in another section of this forum for ideas for just a computer. Now I am thinking I might as well set it up to overclock. Here is what I have so far if there are any suggestions to my system that would be better for overclocking my i7 920 please let me know as I havent ordered anything yet. I have never OC'd anything but I figured now is a good time to learn. I have read allot of people easily getting 4.0ghz or a bit more.
Will my power supply be enough and will the heat sink I have add be good enough for cooling. And will it fit on my mother board without any issues?
