Hello guys ,
Its amazing I built my first computer myself but overclocking is something I never actually even considered until now after resently learning my CPU was bottlenecking my system . I dont have a cooler yet but decided to get one now and start overclocking for the first time . I am consulting you gentlement who understand overclocking more in depth just to direct me in the right direction . My system is as follows
G1.Sniper M3 (rev. 1.0)
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4168#ov
Corsair 16 GB (4x4GB) DDR3 1600 MHz CL9 ( 9-9-9-24)
Intel i7 3770k 3.5 GHz CPU
Corsair 750W HZ 750 PSU
2 x GTX 580 overclocked editions
I was looking at this cooler as choice Noctua NH-D14 CPU All-In-One Cooler

Will this be fine with my system . I heard that if memory has big heatsink there can be provlems or something . Although I am not sure on that . Maybe someone will recommend another cooler.
So I know lots about computer and have used them for over 10 years so learning shouldnt be a problem . Can someone direct me to the right tutorial for overclocking my CPU with this setup. Any advice you wish to add will be most welcome as well to guys . I have CPU monitoring software on my PC .
Just might I add I overclocked with Easy tunne6 just to see what would happen . Temps reached 69 degrees celcius. But thing is it seemed to pause my system for a moment on desktop when right clicking something or shrinking and making larger already open files. Or trying to do most things from the desktop . I am guessing that software OC'ing is not a good option correct ? Manually in the bios is better ? Anyway guys I hope you can help me out on this one and am looking forward to your responses
Cheers Adam .
