What's the power draw of a 6400 OC'd at 4.4 ghz ~1.2v.
I'm asking this because im looking to overclock but i have my cpu connected with only a 4-pin connector. I know i can get molex +4-pin to 8-pin but i'm wondering if i can do without, i did read that a 4 pin can transfer about 144w. Also what cooler should i get, im considering between a Cryorig H7 and the Gelid Tranquillo Rev.4. The H7 is about 10 euro more expensive for me.

Thanks!

so let me get this straight. u want to overclock a cpu thats not supposed to be overclock. and you dont have the right connectors?
you know those stories about people burning down their own houses because of overclocking and scares other ppl from getting into overclocking.. my friend you are about to be that person.
