Hello, so i am about to try and overclock my cpu when i get my new cooler and i just wanted some advice and check before i do anything.
the specs i will have when i try to overclock the cpu will be.

MSI Z97 GAMING 5 - motherboard

Intel Core i5-4690K - CPU

Noctua NH-D15 CPU - Cooler

8,00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 666MHz(4gb x2) - Ram

Could i be able to get 4.0GHz or could i go higher?

PS. sry for bad english not my first language.
 
Solution
That's actually 1333MHz RAM and it shouldn't matter (much) if you OC processor using multiplier only. It could stand higher frequency RAM though, just to make better use of processor and OC.
