Hello guys, my current build is:
PC Specs:
CASE: Corsair Spec-M2 microATX
MOBO: GigaByte GA-B85M-DS3H
RAM: 2x8gb HyperX Fury 1866Mhz
PSU: Aerocool 600W KCAS 80+ Bronze
SSD: 120 GB ADATA
HDD: 2TB HDD Seagate Barracuda
CPU: Intel Core i5 4590 3.7Ghz
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 1070 8GB G1 Gaming
Cooling: 5 Eagle Warrior cheap Blue led Fans
The thing is that my old motherboard (GA-B85M) shorten and died 1 week ago, and i ordered on internet a new mother board, the most expensive one, just to be fancy, i ordered a Gigabyte z97MX Gaming 5, the best chipset i could get on a 1150 socket 🙁
And i know a good way was to upgrade my socket, my cpu and ram sticks to 1151, and ddr4 but i feel that my cpu was more than fast for even considering upgrading the whole build, and its pretty expensive too. I think ill be good for 2-3 more years with this rig. i would like to hear your opinions too.
The real question is.... i dont like overclocking because i think that it reduces the lifetime of hardware, and im wondering if someone really knows if after i just build it, and plug my ram sticks, they will be running at 1866mhz or do i have to do some configuration on BIOS to over clock it to make it push them to that speed?
On Kingston website they claim that their ram sticks over clock by them selves when they can. so im not sure, if i have to do something or just plug them in and enjoy those +266mhz on each ram (i know they are meaningless, and not noticeable, but you know... u want as much as u can)
I have read that u have to enable XMP profile, but these cards on particular are PnP and they are like plug and play and they will overclock by their own, im not sure.... i need someone that can light me up
Do you guys think that im gonna have some kind of problems, or not? i really need your opinion on this one.
