Hello!I've never overclocked CPU or GPU in my life.I decided to oc CPU!So for overclocking do I need a specific motherboard?And if that so which one?Will a Deepcool Lucifer K2 be enough or should I invest a little bit more and get a Arctic Freezer 13 or Thermaltake Frio Silent 14(Which is in 'neighbour' country and will be quite painful to get for me personally)?Do I need more than 8GB of ram,thats probably a silly question,but I just want to be sure.And anything else that I missed?Thanks!I should have mentioned that Im still in process of building my rig so I havent bought a mobo and CPU cooler yet,same for CPU.
 
Overclocking requires specific motherboard, but without knowing what CPU you plan, can't go any more specific.
Amount of RAM is irrelevant. It's speed is relevant, as you probably will want to overclock RAM as well.
As for cooler, depends how much you want to overclock. The more you want, the better cooler you need.
