So I'm thinking to get into overclocking. My current build is:
CPU: AMD FX-8320 (stock cooler)
GPU: XFX Radeon HD 7970
Mobo: ASRock 970 Extreme 3 R2.0
RAM: 4GB Adata XPG V1 1600MHz CL9
PSU: 700W Thermaltake
Case: Ultra Etorque X1
So I'm thinking of getting the G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2x4) DDR3 2133MHz ram from Canada Computers (http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_311_312_1239&item_id=060905A).
My mobo says "Supports DDR3 2100(OC)/1866*/1800*/1600*/1333/1066/800 non-ECC, un-buffered memory ". I am also looking for a decent cooler.
First question: How/what (Mobo?) would I overclock to get my ram to 2100?
Second question: What cooler should I get for my CPU? The Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO? Any better but within $70?
Third question: How could I get a minimum of 4GHz out of my CPU? I would like 4.2GHz though. (ASRock has it's own utility for overclocking as well). (I would like to overclock so I can get at least 30FPS in Batman Arkham Knight. When driving the Batmobile I get 1-9FPS after 30 Mins).
Thanks in advance.
