Hey guys, I just bought the following parts to build a new system:
ASRock Z68 PRO3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 $119.99
i5-2500K $219.99
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 $36.99
CX600 v2 $56.24
Crucial 64MB M4 SSD $109.95
Cooler Master Centurion 5 Case $49.99
Also used some left over 1TB WD hard drives, dvd burner, and misc other parts. Just installed Windows 7 64-bit.
I do a lot of multitasking (but no gaming) and want the quick and easy way to overclock the cpu a little bit. I also want to keep stock cooling. I dont want to get in to anything extreme, and would prefer the quick and easy way to get some more power out of this setup without going crazy. Don't have much spare time to play around and learn what every single setting does. What should I do?
