Check if the I5 6600K and Cryorig R1 Universal can reach maximum output.
I'm testing an i5 6600k with a Cryorig R1 Universal in a silverstone Primera case, featuring three 140mm front intakes and one 140mm rear exhaust fan. What are the recommended safe limits for overclocking during gaming and for everyday use to maintain good performance? I currently run at around 4.5ghz with stable temperatures, but the settings were copied from someone else, so I want advice on whether going above that is possible or advisable.
Additional factors such as the motherboard, RAM, and room temperature should be considered. It's important to experiment with different settings to find the optimal overclock.
