Hello!
I have been slowly but surely overclocking my i5-4690K; currently, I have the CPU running at a very stable 4.1GHz. I plan on continuing the overclock in the near future; however, I was wondering how this could potentially affect the overclock on my GPU. I overclocked my GPU (Sapphire Radeon R9 290 4GB Tri-X OC Video Card) to it's limit before overclocking the CPU. Will the overclocking of the CPU allow me (in theory anyway) to overclock the GPU even more?
