Hey!
I am slightly new to overclocking. I know how to do it but i am living in fear of blowing my psu and/or system if i push past 4.4ghz lol
System specs
Cpu: Fx 8350 @ 4.4ghz 46c at load
ram : 12gb crucial ddr3 1333mhz
Gpu: sapphire rx 460 2gb nitro+
Motherboard: asus formula v crosshair z
Psu: corsair cx500w
Hd: 2 1tb 7200rpm wd blue
Cooling: huge push pull fan , not at pc and cant remember model/brand
Notes
1. After 4.4ghz i started recieving overclock failed messages. I assumed this is because i didnt change voltage. If im wrong about that please let me know.
2. Im well aware a 2gb rx460 sucks, believe me i know. I use it after all lol upgrading to a gtx 1060 6gb soon. Also let me know if its a bad idea, but i'm sure it wont bottleneck with a 8350. Will say though, i got it for £70 on sale at the time.
3. By all means recomend a sub £100 psu thats ideal for overclocking.
thanks for any replies in advance
