I just did a new build and bought myself the I5 4670k. I'm wanting to overclock it to 4.5 or more if all is good at 4.5Ghz. Right now I made it up to 4.2Ghz running stable and I have a "idea" of what I'm doing from all the research I been reading up on with OC'ing. I just been increasing the clock speed until the PC don't boot, then i go back and increase the voltage until it starts up then I run all the test on it to see how it does..
But my question is, do I need to overclock the Ram at all? Or can i just leave it as is?
If it helps my Ram/motherboard is.
G.SKILL Sniper DDR3 1600 timing of 9-9-9-24
Motherboard- MSI Z87 G45 Gaming.
Edit- Also my CPU Cooler is a Cool Master Hyper Evo 212 with dual fans.
Also any advice is more then welcome lol
