Can i overclock this & How would i O.C?
I ordered a computer with a 600w psu

i7 5820k (6 Core) @ 3.3Ghz
Nvidia Geforce gtx 980 4 gb
128gb ssd
2tb hdd
600w psu
16gb ddr4 ram @2133Mhz
Its says Intel X99 Chipset under Motherboard so idk what that is heres the link to it

I should have it in 2 days i was just curious if anyone knew a tutorial video or anything on how to O.C because i have no clue. Any help would be nice(:

It says liquid cooling, so with a quality PSU and good enough MoBo, 4GHz doesn't look too far off :) 


Awesome man thanks for the help. I can see why it says Overclocking Master (:

CX 600, I'd rather not OC such beefy CPU on that PSU.


Thanks all the later down the road if i were to oc it what psu would you recommend? Also thanks for the tip(:


Wattage wise it's quite fine, but quality wise it's crap. So I'd suggest a quality 550W (bare minimum) or 600W+ PSU from a decent brand, choice:

SeaSonic 620W, EVGA 650G, Antec 620W, XFX Pro/ TS 650W and higher models from these brands.


Ohhh ok i get it(: Thanks for the help man i appreciate it and btw how high do you think i could o.c it down the road i don't know if its possible but i was hoping like 4.0

When you find out exactly what motherboard is installed google overclocking on it.
