Hello,
So i'm new to this overclocking business. Have just built my first pc and want to add a little more zoom.
I have an i5 2500k with an asus p8p67 pro motherboard and 8gb corsair vegance ram.
Cooling is the thermalright mux120 in a fractal design r3 case.
I want to get some zooms but also be nice and stable and not need to worry about it. I will probably upgrade the computer in 4-5 years or so.
I suppose i'm wanting 4.2-4.5 ghz.
I tried the auto-tuning overclocking software and it popped it straight up to 4.3 but it was unstable and would sometimes not boot. Also because it changed the bclick the computer would post a few times and that annoyed me.
So I figured I an read up and do this myself. It turns out thats what everyone appears to recommend anyway.
So I have read many guides and think ~I am getting there with adjusting the cpu ratio up slowly till it fails and then slowly adjusting voltage up until it stops failing and is stable.
I may leave voltage alone in fact and just adjust the cpu mul
