I havnt overclocked my PC since i had an i7 920, and i just followed some step by step instructions without really knowing what i was doing, but i had it stable at 3.8ghz.

Anyway, I have a i7 8700k with 16gb of the RAM below, on a Gigabyte Z370n motherboard.

Is this all good enough to overclock, where do i start , is my RAM fast enough, good enough. is it worth while? its currently on a 360 AIO cooler


My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £98.69 (includes shipping: £8.70)​
 
CPU goes to 92 - 100 using CPUz stress, is this too high? do i need to check the thermal paste
