I have a multi-sectioned question where it relates to overclocking and power supply requirements:
I want to start overclocking on some of my hardware, however I want to start overclocking my graphics card. My current GPU is an RX 480 4GB manufactured by Sapphire, the "Sapphire NITRO RX 480 4GB," to be exact. To give a better idea on what kind of wattage I also run, I run this with an LGA 1150 based socket motherboard with a locked Core i5-4460 installed, and I run this on an 500 Watt EVGA 80 Plus Power Certified power supply. If I overclock my graphics card, would my 500 Watt power supply suffice? If so, how much overclocking mileage -- whether it's my GPU's memory clock or the GPU clock -- would I get out of it? Thanks in advance.
