I am considering overclocking my gaming rig after reading numerous posts here. But, I am unsure as to where to start! First of all, will I see a considerable performance boost when I am gaming? Also, I know that the memory that is loaded multiplier is posting at 13x and rates out 1333 MHz but the MHz on the packing says 1600 MHz and I am only posting 1333 MHz and I know the mobo is unlocked. Furthermore, the CPU temp stays around 40-45c. Where do I start? I am not asking anyone to tell me how to do but rather point me into right direction to sticky!!
