Overclocking increase my multitasking performance?

my mobo is Asus H100M-D
my processor is i7 6700k

if i change my mobo from H100m-D to z170 and overclock my i7 6700k to 4,7Ghz, my Multitasking performance is increase?


another question: my computer run 24/7 if i oc my i7 6700k @4,7Ghz my computer can break?

my computer run "43" VM workstaion) and always on 24/7

please advice me what can i do to improve my multitasking performance
what best parts i upgrade to increase my multitasking performance?
(I can not afford 6core and 12thread)

My Spece:
CPU: i7 6700k

43 VMs on a single host... wow. What are those VMs all doing?

I assume your motherboard is actually the Asus H110M-D? Unfortunately that mobo doesn't support overclocking. And your CPU is absolutely as fast as it gets before you move to much more expensive enthusiast grade parts (6 core +). Even if you upgraded your motherboard to an overclockable Z170, you'd only be able to extract maybe 20% higher performance at most. It's just not worthwhile.

It also looks like you're hitting your RAM cap, but seems like you only have 2 RAM slots, both populated, so that's another hurdle in your upgrade path.

Given that you're using VMs, is it possible to split the load over two systems? You might be able to pick up an old server with RAM and plenty of cores which could do some serious heavy lifting.

However, other than that suggestion, you either need a big upgrade budget to throw more horsepower at the problem. OR, you need to look again at what you're trying to achieve and see if there's some other way around. Because you've basically gone as far as you can with your current hardware, there is no easy upgrade.
