As the title says does it's actually worth it to overclock a locked CPU.
I saw guides overclocking the 3450 to 3.7GHZ using all cores. So if I overclocked it to 3.7 will it make a difference in FPS? Say watchdogs since it's intensive CPU. does those 600MHZ makes difference in games or even intensive CPU game like watchdogs?

It will make a small noticeable effect across all games, and even general usage of Windows.
There is no reason not to do it unless the temperature's are too high, shouldn't even have to touch the voltage.
