Hey, I have heard that planetside 2 uses cpu more than gpu power. I have a GTX 770 and a I7 4770k. Now I get 35 frames in intensive battles. If I overclock my Cpu to 4,3-4,4 GHz will this increase the performance, I don't have any OC now. Also is there any recommended graphic settings? Thanks

upping your clock will DEFINITELY help that game, trust me I play it a lot lol. I have a 2600k and 780ti and I average 80-100. graphic setting wise, I would put everything to ultra except shadows, turn shadows completely off. hope this helps :p
considering the 4770k is the best gaming CPU out there right now you don't need to OC it to get playable graphics. As for settings, use geforce experience to set up your video settings in the game.

But you should definitely OC your cpu, that's the whole point of getting a K series CPU. make sure you have an aftermarket cooler though if you do it. I recommend a coolermaster hyper212 for air cooling, otherwise if you want liquid go with a corsair or antec.

I have the Cooler Master Seidon 120M, I hope that is good enough. I am going to OC my CPU but I have never done it before, but I have got help so I will OC. Thank you for the great response :)
