Hi I have a AMD Athlon II X4 631 @ stock 2.6 Ghz and haven't tried to overclock it. I have a generic 320w psu (bought the pc prebuilt with an apu) i also installed a R7 240 and want to know if I overclock will I damage the pc and is there any point in overclocking right now because my GPU may be bottlenecking?

Really your worried about overclocking ? I'm worried about that psu. Get a new psu right away . It could potentally blow up and take your parts with it . Definetly don't oc anything right now . Get an aftermarket cooler / heatsink . You can oc your gpu with msi afterburner .
