Overclocking CPU

[cutebeans]

When do you stop seeing increases in performance? Is it after 4ghz?

What type of performance are you talking about?

If you are talking about games, you won't see much improvement over 4Ghz, but if you are talking rendering, encoding, calculation, or other CPU intensive tasks, every extra bit of power will help

Assuming you mean gaming performance, it depends on your graphics card. If you've got 3 580s going, a couple of extra mhz will make a difference. What are your CPU and other specs?

Whenever your GPU, RAM, or some other part becomes the limiting factor.
