Hey guys.
I recently upgraded my rig and i would like your help in overclocking my specs are as follows
I5 4670k
Asus gryphon z87
8 gig ram 1600 crosair
850w crosair power supply
Zalman lq 310 liquid cooler
Asus r9 290 reference cooler
Honestly i am new to overclocking i did try to overclock to 4.2 ghz it is stable tried running the stress test with intel extreme utility software the max temp reached under full load was 55c i did not play with the voltage yet i tried to push it to 4.3 ghz under the stress test it failed over heat and 4.4 ghz system just restarts. Should i just keep it on 4.2 or is there anything else i can do. Your help is highly appreciated.
