He everyone,

While being busy with overclocking my G3258 cpu I started to wonder if my PSU can actually handle this. I know its not the best PSU but is it good enough to handle some overclocking, like up to 4.0Ghz? This is my first time overclocking so really do not know al lot about it..

My pc parts:

- G3258 cpu
- Gigabyte Z97-D3H motherboard
- Corsair vengeance 8gb (2x4) CL9
- MSI GTX 750 2gb ddr5
- crucial BX100 250GB / Hitachi travelstar 320gb
- Sharkoon WPM500 500Watt PSU (80 plus bronze)
- Gelid tranquillo Rev.2 CPU cooler
