I really want some experience in overclocking.
I have no experience or knowledge in overclocking but I heard that for Intel processors a "k" needs to be at the end of your processor, which mine isn't(i5 3330). This leads me to thinking the only way I can get some overclocking experience is to build a very cheap system that doesn't have to be able to do anything except write up a document. My question: Can I overclock the i5 3330 without an aftermarket heatsink fan, or should I build a cheap computer just for this purpose?
