Hey guys,
First off, I am trying to OC so I can play Skyrim on higher settings as the CPU seems to be holding me back.
If OCing the i7 920 isn't going to help, let me know and that's the end of this.
I really want to OC to a very safe state. I see lots of forums guiding to 3.8 minimum and trying for 4.0+. I'm not this greedy, and I'm too cautious to attempt it.
My Specs:
ASUS x58 P6T deluxe V2
i7-920 @ stock 2.66
CPU cooler: Asetek 240mm watercooler (I fear this is subpar)
6 GB corsair @ 1600
Thermaltake TR2 RX-850 850W power supply
GTX 285 2GB
ANY help/advice will be very appreciated!
If there is some easy answer like "go to bios and put in these numbers", that would be fantastic.
Thanks
