    [SOLVED] Updating rig, worried about old CPU, need help

    correct. I put in a cooler master 212evo and it seems to have fixed the issues, I just need to tweak my system to overclock my cpu just a tad, other than that everything seems back to normal

    Question Need help with build- suggest upgrades

    I cannot select OC and then OC settings, I tried previously and without turning on OC GENIE 2 in the bios i cant make OC changes. The only option I see is to manually change my ram to 1333 from a drop down, should i do so?
