bclk frequency overclocking help

[kvnhardware]

I am wondering if I am able to overclock my cpu to the next bclk option, currently I have it set to 100:100. The other option I believe is 100:130. If I change it to that will I also need to increase my voltage? Also since I changed it to 100:100 my game's feel a lot smoother, but my temperature for my cpu has increased is that normal?

My specs are:
I7-4970 3.6GHz 4 core
Asus q87m-e
Crucial ballistix 24Gb ram (4×2) and (8x2)
Seagate 1TB Hard Drive
MSI R9 380
Evga 500w

Just remember that your cpu speed is CPU multiplier times BCLK...so 36 multi at 100 = 3600, but 36 multi at 130 = 4680.

Unless you consider yourself a very competent overclocker, I would stay away from messing with BCLK, as it also changes DRAM timings and other timings in your system (PCH, PCIe, etc.)
