Hello, I'm new to this and would love to learn how to overclock my CPU since it's currently running at 3.00GHz but was advertised as 3.2GHz. What methods are available, and is this even feasible? Also, regarding my GTX 1050 Ti, could someone guide me through the steps to safely overclock it without damaging the device? I have pictures of my CPU, motherboard, and GPU. Thank you very much for your help.

The GHz value shown in the monitoring software is just a momentary measurement. The chip can actually boost up to 1 or 2 cores to 3.2GHz. However, the multiplier is fixed, meaning you can't go beyond that speed.
