Hey guys!
I've been doing research about how much extra performance I could get from OC'ing my 2500K to 4.4 ~4.5GHz, but I couldn't find any specifics.
I know it depends on a lot of factors, but mostly of how much a game is CPU intensive.
I'm playing some games with 3 monitors, so an extra boost on my rig would be nice, but I trying to find out if really worth reducing the life span of my CPU for it (I got it like 8 months ago), and I'm planning to stay with it for around 3 years.
Any examples of performance difference with/without OC are appreciated.
