Hi there everyone. I wanted to know if it is possible to overclock an i5 6400 with a gigabyte z170x gaming 7 mobo. If it is possible to overclock, can anyone tell me how to do it? Because I have never overclocked anything in my life.

My pc specs are:

I5 6400
gigabyte gtx 960 2gb windforce (with 3 fans)
z170x gaming 7
8 gigs of corsair ddr4 ram
corsair h110i watercooling
500 watts psu

Like i said i have never even tried to overclock so if you guys could help me out it would mean a lot to me ;)

Yes you can overclock your 6400

Get the bios from the above link, my i5 6500 for ex does 4.6 @ 1.43V

Good luck!
