Here is my setup:
AMD FX-4100
Hyper 212 EVO
Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3
G-Skill 8 gigs DDR3 (defaulted at 1333 mhz)
Gigabyte GTX 560
Toughpower 750 watt psu
Based on that, is there an expert here that can help me OC the CPU a bit? I know next to nothing about overclocking, but I only want to OC the CPU. Overclocking RAM is too complicated for me, and the Graphics card is too expensive, so I don't want to mess with those. I'm dissapointed with this AMD FX-4100 (should have done more research before buying) and will probably spring for a different CPU within a few months, so I would like to take this opportunity to learn how to OC a CPU. I realize there are probably 3 million posts about OC'ing a cpu on here, but I am wondering if there is someone that has already overclocked one of these 4100's in particular yet. I've seen reports on various websites of folks getting these things waaaaaaay up in the 4's and I'd like to get a piece of that. Thanks in advance for any takers.
