Hi all I've just purchased a maximus hero mobo and 4770k. I'm wanting to over clock but the more I read the more complicated it gets!
So tell me if this is right
My goal is 4.5ghz
From what I've read all I have to do is bump my CPU to 4ghz. And work my way up from there until I BSOD.
If it crashes and I haven't reached 4.5ghz yet bump the voltage up bit by bit until no crashes happen.
Then turn off all power saving options on mobo?
Then if all seems well just run a stress test over night and make sure my temps haven't exceeded 85degrees.
Please add anything else I need to do or shouldn't do!
Thanks in advance for any help/advice
Dave.
