Hey, everyone. I have an 8320 and an ASRock 990FX Fata1lty Killer mobo, and I'm wanting to do some overclocking. With the UEFI, it seems like it'd be pretty easy to do, but this is my first time that I'm able to do some overclocking, so I need some help.
I'll give you some specs so you give me an idea of what numbers I should be using.
CPU: 8320
CPU Cooler: Hyper 212 EVO
Mobo: 990FX Fat Killer
----- It has 8+2 power phasing
RAM: 8GB PNY Optima 2x4GB DDR3 10666 1333Mhz
I have run this Hyper 212 EVO on some pretty long gaming sessions so far and I haven't seen the CPU go over 45C, if even that, so I'm confident it can handle some OC'ing based on that and what I've read.
Anyway, the bus freq, CPU Ratio, and nb freq kinda confuse me. I'm not sure which one to keep the same or change to increase the overall clock speed.
Also, I really only want 4GHz or maybe 4.2, and I've read that voltage shouldn't matter at that point, but if so, let me know.
Any help appreciated! Thanks
