Ok so I finally now have my new PC built

Core parts in term sof OCing I think are

Motherboard - Gigabyte z97 D3h
CPU - I5 4690k
Cooler - Coolermaster Nepton 140xl
PSU - CM 650 (need to ammend my signiture) modular one

Rest is as below :)

SO I've read the guide above and read some of the other information but I'm a little nervous about trying these things

Currently according to Speccy it runs really cool - 23 degrees no load, and 45-51 degrees under full gaming load (well World of Tanks rofl)

My only issue part is my current graphics card (76 degrees on gaming normally - not sure if i can do anything with this?)

Can I get some advice on prgrammes I ned to down load etc?
 
Brill advice thanks very much guys

I have MSI afterburner already as I wanted to double check speccys figures.

I don;t want to OC the GPU as I intened to swap it out in a few months once I ahve saved up enough money for a new card (little bit brassic after buying the rest of the machine)

I'll download Prime95 and the Intel Burn Test tonight then and start looking this weekend slowly, see what happens.

I like that it runs really nice a cold now and I don't want to upset the temps to much
