Hello, want to ask about safe CPU overclock, and by safe I mean SAFE!
My components are:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Asus Z87-k motherboard
i5 4670-k 4core
24gb ram Kingston (2×4 1600mhz hyperx red and 2×8 1866 mhz hyperx fury black)
700w power supply
Cooler Master Hyper 212 + Evo
Nvidia Asus gtx 660 2gb OC edition
-------------------------------------------------------------
So what do you think? Is my cooler cool enough to provide safe temperatures for cpu and remain relatively silent? Iam not clocking nerd, never done such a thing before, thats why Iam writing this, to get some useful info. I've done some research, but Iam still not very confident about it, cause I dont want to mess it up. Pc is working just fine, cpu temp. never exceeded 60°C, not even 55°C I think, even when I was gaming over 2 hours.
Also I have to remark, before I buy those two 8gb kingston hyperx fury, I've got total 12gb ram in pc, so I remove 2×2 kingston and istall 2×8 instead and left there 2×4. When I turned on pc, its just keep reseting, not even screen turned on. So I remove 16 gb hyperx fury, left only 8 gb, turned system on and everything booted up smoothly. So I opened up google and start searching what the problem could be. In short, I have to change vram frequency in bios from auto to 1866 mhz, then, pc booted up normally to this day, no problems at all. So this was the only thing I have ever changed in bios in order to be able turn on pc normally. Also "in not too distant future", I am thinking about purchasing Asus gtx strix 1060 6gb OC graphic card, so maybe I wont need clocking cpu at all, but any useful info is welcome.
These are my current ram:
Kingston hyperx red 8gb
