[SOLVED] what can i overclock this to

[itzahme]

i have a i5-9400f with a sys tuf b360m plus mobo and 500 watt psu and geforce 1660 gtx ti what can i overclock this to

 

[rgd1101]

to as much as the cpu can handle.

For the cpu you'll get stock as it's a locked cpu on a locked board.

its a stock mobo? a TUF B360M-PLUS GAMING S

It's a non overclocking board, so you'll only get stock speeds out of the CPU(which is also locked). Only the Z370 and Z390 boards support overclocking the 8th and 9th gen Intel socket 1151 K(unlocked) CPUs.

so i am having issues with streaming and playing games i have 16GB of ram but it says my cpu is only 2.7 or 2.8ghz is that why

 

[bignastyid]

Base frequency is 2.9GHz. It can boost a single core upto 4.1GHz. Boost depends on load and cpu temperatures.

why is it saying that my cpu is running at 76% or higher when i am using streamlabs obs and streaming then

 

[bignastyid]

Ok, so what you are doing uses a bit of the CPU. I'm not seeing a problem.

any suggestions on how i can decrease the cpu usage and still be able to stream without dropping frames
