That´s all. Btw i need a Newbie explanation about OC.
 
Yeah that looks like a good rig

And its a K cpu you just need to change the multi and add vcore so not a lot to do when ocing just watch for load temps

Do you got a after market cpu cooler ?
 
You overclocking may be a bit limited in that case.. Just keep that CPU in the mid 80s or less while stress testing it and normal PC functions will be fine.
 
you wont get that high oh of oc with the stock cooler maybe like 4Ghz unless you wanna run it hot XD
 
So i need a Cooler? What u guys recomend? And the case its good, got a nice airflow, that case its huge. that picture dont show to much.
 
Your PSU... important that its quality... In my signature is a list of known good PSU's. Pick one around that wattage and see if its available around you. Your PSU may be good, but Im struggling to find any reputable reviews on it.

Need? No.. you can overclock that thing to 4GHz+ on the stock cooler. Much over that though, and you will want one, yes. It depends on your overclocking goals really.
