Hello, I'm thinking of overclocking my Asus 760, but I'm new to this area.

I have the following specs:
Intel I5 4670
Gigabyte H87-D3H
8gb G.skill Ripjaw ram
120gb SSD
1tb HDD
Asus Nvidia 760 2gb
Corsair cx500m

Guidance would be much appreciated on what/where/how/who as I am a complete novice.
Thanks.

well gpu overclocking isnt that difficult but what you need to now before you begin is to constantly monitor temps at idle and under load while overclocking and better stay under 85c gpu z is a fine monitoring software to do so! for overclocking you can try msi afterburner. you do so by increasing core and memory clock. core overclocking has a greater impact on performance so you really need to focus on that but only a small amount at the time of about 25mhz and increase the power limit in %. after an increase you also need to test for artifacting through a stress test like furmark or occt for several minutes to ensure stability. also i use heaven benchmark for additional testing. if you succed in all that then you have a...
