Now, I am aware I can overclock this, but i have a couple of questions.
Q1: Is the ASUS software any good for overclocking? or better to do it manually?
Q2: Whats a realistic overclock I can get with these parts?
I just want a little advice first. I will of course be installing all my software etc before I even consider doing it
