All I know is raise CPU voltage and ratio and check if stable...
mobo is the MSI Z87 GD65,
Its night here so I will see the replies tomorrow but please give me a guide. I know you might send video links of linus and OC3DTV But I want a straight forward, correct and that type of guide. To check if its stable I run OCCT and thats it? If so, how long? Like that is the stuff i need to know and how to OC. I wont oc now, but soon. Thanks!

Here are the settings I used; you can use them as a template for your settings:
Profile #1 Basic Profile:
CPU VRIN Override LLC: Set to Extreme (this is to make sure VIN doesn’t droop)
CPU VRIN Override Voltage: 1.7-2.0v (reduce if temperatures too high is causing instability, increase if temperatures are fine and you are unstable)
VCore: 1.24-1.34v
Ring Voltage: 1.15 or 1.2v
CPU Multiplier: 44x-46x
BCLK: Auto
Turbo: Auto

Because overclocking will do nothing at all for your game performance. That's why. Unless you bought all this hardware simply to try to see what the best benchmark score is you can get, overclocking that CPU will not help game performance much if any as it can easily max any game at stock settings. It is a hobby, not a necessity.

What about GPU Oc? Even worse?

GPU overclocking can get you 1-10fps increase. That's about it. My GTX 660ti overclocked at the ragged edge can barely put 5fps over the stock settings in benchmarks.
Unless your hardware is old and showing age, overclocking is not really going to get you any kind of gains.
Also, for the record my CPU is not overclocked. Simply locked at the boost frequency as it is 2.5 years old. It can still max all games today. Your CPU has YEARS to go before overclocking will make much if any difference at all.

I mean, yes if you look at it like that. If you planned to have a hobby of overclocking (constantly pushing limits, trying new techniques, messing with power limits, etc.), then it would be useful, but if you really just were expecting more performance by overclocking once and leaving it alone from then on, it will simply not be be noticeable for a while.
you could have just used the stock cooler for a year or two then bought whatever was the newest and bet at the time when overclocking your CPU would actually matter.
In my opinion, I would ALWAYS opt to save money and get a non-overclockable CPU and put the money elsewhere unless budget is no object at all. Hence why I have an i5 2310 not a 2500k. Simply because I don't consider overclocking a hobby of mine.

I just really wanna OC...BF4 should benifit....I can max out all games I HAVE but none are very intensive besides warthunder.To be honest, I highly doubt you would get anything more out of BF4 with overclocking. Your system can max it at 60fps at 1080p as is. Nothing you do will be noticeable.

Have a look there. No game gained even more than 4fps with a large 1.1ghz overclock. Most not benefiting at all.

Those people are just jealous that you have this expensive hardware. Don't let them push you to do something. I understand wanting to overclock. I'm just trying to make sure you understand you might probably get nothing out of it. You want to know the real reason people overclock? They see it like a competition. Who can overclock the best. "look at me, my CPU is at 4.5ghz!!!!". people like to show off. Of course there are people who do it for performance and don't care what people think. BUT, the majority of people with their CPU GHZ listed in their sig are doing it for attention/to show off. I'm sorry but it is true. Look, even I am guilty of it. The people with no CPU speeds or system specs in their sigs, are some of the people with the most powerful and overclocked systems on this site.

It is easy, but it is WAY more finicky than the CPU. It took me probably 20 tries and crashes or more to get a high stable overclock on my 660ti.
And even then i barely got 5fps out of it. I just run it at stock. It wasn't worth the heat and fan noise for such small gains.
For GPU overclocking EVERY single card is different. Even two identical cards will overclock wildly differently. You have to increase clock speed and voltage in VERY small increments and then run benchmark tests each time to test for stability.
It is not difficult to do, just a very tedious process.

Best solution
It depends. If you have a gtx 460 and you only need 5fps more to be able to lock a game at 30fps, then yes of course I recommend it.
But, if you can lock games at 60fps at 1080p no problem, then no it is pointless. All it will do is make more noise and heat.
No matter what cooler you have, an overvolted card will ALWAYS run ALOT hotter than stock. My card runs at 70c stock at 100% load and it touched 90c overclocked without messing with fan profiles. And yes, any card will also get ALOT louder when you mess with the fan profiles, regardless of cooler style.
For your card, I would leave it alone. No point to overclock it.

Minecraft - Never lag maxed out
Warthunder - I use Vsync so it caps at 60
other games are all smooth
Elder scrolls, dont know since beta starts tomorrow noon but I might not buy the game
Ugh...I know OCing wil be pointless...idk why I want to...Whatever. I wont for the time being...But maybe my CPU and GPU have amazing chips and Im missing out....never know.
Solution for your help.

There is a legitimate increase in performance from overclocking.
My CPU is so old that even a 12.5% OC notable increased framerate. But even a high end CPU can benefit despite what tiny voices is saying

BTW tiny, my PSU fan is on hybrid, should I leave it at that? Fan never spins (it works, i just turned it to auto hybrid) Is my PSU good? Its XFX so i feel like its not but i paid 119 and its worth 130. Random Question: Is my PC high end or mid ranged cause I have no SSD and stuff.
Smeeze, So you're saying the opposite of tiny....Its Ok man. You said you notice a diff cause your CPU is old and you're running today's games and stuff. But My CPU is made to max out these games at stock so mine isnt old...big difference there.

Ok with those games there is no point unless you have a really old CPUI agree. I do agree that overclocking high end hardware can have some difference, but for an i5 4670k at 1080p resolution with an r9 280x, he doesn't really have anything to worry about. The GPU will poop out before the CPU does.
If he had two 780s in SLI, this would be a different discussion, but with a single 280x, I would surprised if he say any gains form CPU overclocking even in demanding games.

XFX uses Seasonic units and puts their name on them. Your PSU as as high end as it gets. I would leave the fan on hybrid. No harm there.
No one can accurately answer your high//mid range question because that is an opinion not a fact. To me, it is on the low side of "high end". I consider it to be better than a "mid range" computer.

Do you use optifine? If so, it will make a world of difference. With no mods I get about 90fps but with optifine and messing with all of the settings, I get 140-160fps at 1080p. Obviously we plan at 60fps with Vsync, but it could probably help you stay at 60fps with shaders.
I don't actually like the way shaders make minecraft look so I do not personally play with them .

Yes, it is out for 1.7.4 and 1.7.2. 1.7.4 came out 2 weeks ago and 1.7.2 has been out forever.
Ans yeah, but I still do not like shaders. Minecraft is a building and adventuring game in the most primal sense of the words. Graphics aren't the point. You make your own story, your own adventure. Graphics have nothing to do with it. A good looking (shaders and AA) minecraft, to me, defeats the purpose. You play it for adventure and and making your own creations and story, not because it looks good.
That's the way I feels. I do not like any graphics mods for minecraft unless they are just simple texture packs, and even then, I do not use texture packs.

yeah graphics mean nothing. I just downloaded it for the first time but i never use it. Just for fun and looking around. I make huge things in MC and explore just like you. To clear that, I dont use shaders...not worth losing 100fps just for a "nicer"Look. All i have to do is change the profile and bam. Never really seen Shaders as something for a daily use....Gonna install optifine now to run MC even better

Also, I only play at 60fps. I cant stand the jitter and screen tearing that happens above that. Same goes for any game.
