Hi!
I recentley bought intel's budget cpu: the E6300 @ 2.8gHz. I have heard these overclock really well and would like to try for myself, however, I have never overclocked before. I would like to know if I would be able to overclock this CPU to a certain speed on what I already have (a case with a 14cm front fan and a small side fan and stock cpu fan, seems like pretty decent air cooling, so what do you think I could reach?). I would also like to know if I could take that speed further so what fan would you reccomend and what speed would you reccomend I take it up to?
Lastly, and pointers to any guides on overclocking for a beginner so when I have decided if I will keep what I have or buy a fan I can begin OC'ing?
Thanks!
