Specs:
CPU: FX-6300 6-Core 3.5 GHz ( stock ) w/ Hyper 212 EVO Cooler
MOBO: MSI 760GMA-P34 AM3+
PSU: Antec 450w
Ram: 8GB DDR3 8GB (2 x 4GB) 1600MHz
GPU: MSI GTX 750ti 2GB
OS: Windows 10 Home 64-bit
So this friday I'm upgrading my gpu to an rx 470 and I fear my cpu will be bottlenecking the card in games. So, because I cant afford to upgrade to an i5 6500 ( my next hardware goal), the best I can do now is probably just overclock my cpu. But as you can see, my current mobo isn't suited for overclocking ( I've seen youtube videos on doing it with this motherboard, but after asking on Tom's Hardware I was advised not to ).
So what is a good motherboard for overclocking? I'd like if the price of the board was below 80 dollars, as I just want something stable. It doesn't have to have fancy LED's or anything is what I'm saying haha ( but that's a plus!)
