Overclocking for streamin/gaming

[meshoo]

Hey guys i was looking to overclock my pc which is : fx 4350 , gtx 960 , 9gb ram.
My main question is if i overclock it would i get more preform,fps or its not worth it.

Yeah, if you overclock it high enough you'll get a significant noticeable increase of performance.

Anything extra you can get out of a FX-4350 will be worth it.
What is your motherboard make/model?
You need a better than average one if you will OC.
Also, you will need better than the stock cooler.

I have hyper evo 212 and my motherboard is 760gma-p34 and evga 600W psu

Hyper212 is OK.
Your motherboard is of poor quality.
You may be limited in what you can do:

Do what you can, but I would not put any more money into that platform unless it can be carried forward to a new build. Graphics, ssd, case would be OK. Ram, cpu, mobo I would not.

Keep your temperatures under control and you are likely OK.

I doubt you can go that high.
It depends on the quality of your chip.
Those with good chips claim 5.0, those with dogs are silent.

So 5 is way too much or it should be just fine ?

All chips are different.
I really doubt that you can go that high even with one of the best binned FX-4350 chips.
OC a bit and stress test.
If successful, you can up it a notch.
If you reach 60c, that is about your limit.
