Is my PC (Mostly CPU) overclockable?

[superglitch04]

Is it ok (or even possible) to overclock my PC? Its a custom built computer with one case fan on it (The case is Antec) and my motherboard is an Asus A68HMK and my CPU is an AMD Dual Core A6-6400k 3.9Ghz Black Edition.

Is it overclockable? Yes it is, BUT your motherboard is not really good enough to get a decent overclock on your clock speed. You would need to add an after market cpu cooler to it overclock it as well. You CAN try to overclock your igpu a little though.

You would be better off just upgrading the cpu to a quad core A8 or A10.

Agreed, a CPU upgrade is the only thing that would really get you a significant difference in performance, there's only so much you can do with a dual core.

Thanks for your answers. Sorry to make another question, but is there anyway to dedicate some of the system's ram (or maybe even VRAM?) to a dedicated graphics card?

What are you talking about? 😵
The CPU utilizes system DRAM to run software and applications on the PC.
You cannot allocate or partition it.
Graphics cards have their own discrete memory in VRAM, or Video RAM which is handled by the card itself.
