G'day everyone, looking for guidance on overclocking my system.
I understand the general basis of overclocking but i would genuinely appreciate a Semi-Depthy walk through for my specific system.

System Specs

    i5 4690k
    MSI Z97 Gaming 3
    8GB G.Skill Ripjaws CL9
    NZXT X31 Kraken CLC
    Silverstone Strider Plus 750W 80+ Silver
    Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit
    Crucial MX100 128GB
    Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200


This will be my first OC, so incremental steps would be brilliant.

You'd need 650W to run your PC normally. They are a middle tier quality power supply. With 100W headroom you should be OK.

Cheers, Baby, I will begin this tomorrow because I'm busy today, but will let you know how it's going in case I've botched it.
