Been reading a lot about people saying over clock CPUs over 4ghz to get better performance with games I have a i5 3570k never been touched always sat and stock speeds curious what safe levels I can go to and how to accomplish this one very kind member gave me 3D mark in a give away so I thought I have that there to help me test the PC under load etc.
 
thanks matey, one question what is the temp i should make sure it stays at idle and under load i find ivy is hotter than when i had my i3 1156
 
if I find temps too high would lowering the clock speed to something like 4 or 4.2 better etc really apreciate your help buddy.
 
had trouble finding some of them settings it said in it and now my pc feels like it is stuttering in places, really dont know why i got this cpu knowing jack about overclocking :(
