First off, I am more or less beginner with OCing. I have some basic knowledge about it (few youtube vids).
I ordered new computer (arrives in 2 days), and I plan to OC it right away, simply put I wan't to get rid of this part of computer maintenance in few years.
Build:
-CPU: i5 6600K
-MoBo: Asus Maximus 8 Hero Z170
-GPU: Gigabyte G1 GTX 980Ti
-RAM: 4x8GB G.Skill Trident Z 3200mhz (I took this one because of the looks and decent performance)
-CPU Cooler: Corsair H110i
-PSU: Corsair RM750x
-SSD: Samsung 850Evo 500GB
-Case: Bequiet! Silent Base 800
Monitor 1: 1440p 144hz
Monitor 2: 1080p 60hz
You can give a comment on build itself as well. What do you think about it? Did I make some major mistake? I gave it quite a lot of thought so I guess it should be solid for few years to come.
I will use it for gaming more or less, some video rendering from time to time.
-------------------------------
Anyway back to OC talk.
I plan to boost CPU only, for now. I don't think that GPU needs and tweaking right from the start (chose Gigabyte G1 because it has best cooling for its price).
Goal: To boost it to 4400 minimum, hopefully 4500mhz.
For testing I need what programs? Prime95 for burnin test and 3Dmark for quick test and overall score?
Is it really needed to run Prime95 for 24 hours? (You know, overwhelming excitement about new might not let me run for so long)
Can I do other stuff when testing is running? I mean downloading programs?
And biggest problem of all for my knowledge of OCing. What about Voltages? What should I put with 4500mhz?
Thanks for help in advance, and I know it is pretty messy to see what I want to know.
EDIT: If you need more information or if anything is not clear just ask.
Cheers,
Kuler
