Overclocking My Rig

Postby Zorro » June 24th, 2017, 2:05 pm

All stress tested in Prime95 and stable. Going from 3.4GHz to 4.6GHz on the i7 should allow me to get another few years out of this CPU while still allowing for ultra high 1080p settings in all of the latest games. I haven't stress tested the GPU overclock yet (just got it recently - it'll probably get replaced before the i7 will).

Running No Man's Sky on other monitor at time of this screenshot. Ignore the horrible reviews NMS has on Steam; after the foundation and pathfinder updates, people's complaints are, IMHO, null and void. I've got 295 hours into it thus far.

Amazing. I've never heard of something as high as 4.6 GHz before.
