I want to overclock my AMD FX-4300 to 5ghz without any "fancy" heatsinks or mobos ( i choosed AsRock mobo but idk the model number and it costs around 40Euro with lousy CPU already in)(water cooling, phase cooling and others) but i have TEC modules can i use them to overclock it? (min temp.= -20 max. (on hot side)+ 90 (but i dont really need the "hot side anyways) and maybe my english is crap because im Latvian

Krists Javalds - first You need a solid motherboard [990x/cpu vrm passive cooler] motherboard, secondly, for 5 ghz, I'm not even sure Your 4300 can do it, but if, You're gonna need some massive aftermarket cooler. NH-D14/D15, or Corsair h100i, h100i gtx, etc.
