This is an intel i5 core 4690 quad core. It runs at 3.5 ghz and overclocks at maximum 3.9ghz. Would this be worth getting a £17 water cooling system on it. I am likely to overclock it for a maximum of 2 hours in one go per day. Would this be worth it and prolong the life of the cpu. The parts come with a 2 year warranty anyway. Would it just make sure the cpu lasts longer than 2 years then just break so it just gets rid of the point in having a warranty?

If you have an i5 4690, its not an overclockable cpu.
If you have the i5 4690k, you can overclock with a Z97 motherboard.
No point of overclock the cpu if you just using it for a short time.
Either overclock and keep it or don't do it at all.
