Hey guys,
I have a 2600k and Asus Deluxe Z68 LGA1155.
It will be inside a COSMOS II case. My DDR3 is 1600mhz RIPJAWZ X series 4x4GB for 16GB total.
I have two questions-
First question,
Can I overclock with the stock cooler? How far is safe with the stock cooler? A reasonable and stable OC that can be maintained daily without cooling upgrade?
Second,
For a real OC I need a better CPU cooler and possibly Thermal Compound. YES?
Ok, assuming I do- what should I get.
I can spend $50 on the cooler I am thinking as a good budget.
Reccomend me a CPU cooler and thermal compound if needed.
Lastly,
Where is the best place to go to find the reccomended settings for a good OC on my board and CPU ?
