So I built my gaming pc a week ago but I want to push it further my mother board is an Asus RoG Maximus VI hero
My graphics card is an EVGA Gtx 780 w/ acx cooler my CPU is an i7 4770k and I have a 1000w EVGA psu. What would be good values for the over clock (voltages, Ghz, GPU frequencies and power needed etc.) and what's the easiest way to overclock the CPU in the UEFI and the GPU in precisionx? I have an h100i liquid cooler for my i7 and I'm thinking a 4.0 Ghz maybe 4.4 Ghz overclock but generally uneducated about the GPU as well as voltages.

Thank you for replying and inform me if you need to know more of my system.
 
Solution
For the cpu;
Set voltage to override,
Set voltage to a value you are comfortable with (intels max is 1.3v)
Increase the max turbo boost multipliers (1c,2c,3c,4c) by 1,
Run a stress test
If it passes raise the multipliers by 1 and restress and repeat.
It it fails, go into the bios, reduce the multipliers by one, and you have a stable overclock.

I have a 4770k at 4.2@1.18v, I have gone up to 4.5@1.3v for benchmarks

For the gpu;
Go into precision x,
Set temp target to 95 and the priority,
Increase the voltage slider, and increase the clock slider.
