Looking to overclock FX 8320

[JonBond]

Hi,

I am looking to see if I can overclock my AMD FX 8320 processor. My current PC specs are:

FX 8320
GTX 770 2GB
8gb RAM (can't remember exactly what brand)
Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
650 PSU
Noctua NH-D14

I was wondering how much I could overclock my CPU to, and how I would go about doing it since I have never overclocked in my life.

Any help is welcome, thanks in advance.

With that Motherboard and CPU heatsink you should be able to get a very good overclock for the CPU. Maybe even in the range of 4.8GHZ. But because you are a beginner you can aim lower so like 4.5 ghz. http://www.overclock.net/t/1348623/amd-bulldozer-and-piledriver-overclocking-guide-asus-motherboard << this is a good place to look to learn more about overclocking your chip
