Hi,
I heard and read that the motherboard is not good at all for overclocking, which I'm a novice at and never done before. I would like to know if I can still do a little bit overclocking anyway, mostly for gaming improvement. Here are my PC specs:
CPU = FX 8320e (on stock cooler)
MB = Gigabyte 970a ds3p (rev.2.0) (Bios version=FC Date=06/01/2015)
RAM = Kingston 16GB DDR3 1866mhz (dual channel) (part number=KHX1866C10D3/8G)
GPU = Powercolor Red Dragon RX 460 2GB
PSU = Cooler Master Elite V2 550W
FANS = 5 intake, 3 exhaust
I also have a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO that's new on the box unopened that I can use, but maybe I should just sell it if this PC won't be able to overclock that much anyway.
What do you think? if I can do it, am I going to gain some noticeable FPS on games? or, should I just forget about overclocking the CPU and sell my EVO 212?
Thanks, regards.
