Easy method to boost performance for beginners
You're getting a 212 EVO for your 3770k and currently running at stock speed 3.5 GHz. You're thinking about boosting it a bit but don't have much BIOS experience or comfort with tweaking things. Your question is: Can you overclock the CPU slightly by adjusting a few settings? Your motherboard is an Asus P8z77v-LX2.
I'm getting a 212 EVO for my 3770k and currently my CPU runs at stock speed of 3.5 GHz. I'd like to push it a bit higher but I have no BIOS experience and am not very comfortable with these things. My question is: Can I overclock the CPU slightly by just adjusting a few settings? My motherboard is an Asus P8z77v-lx2. ASUS seems to offer easy overclocking in the UEFI, so I should update my BIOS first and then check if it's available.

My question is: Can I overclock the CPU slightly without going all the way? Should I check if there are any options in the BIOS? My motherboard is an Asus P8z77v-LX2.
Does ASUS offer an easy overclock feature in the UEFI? I think I should update my BIOS first and then see if it’s available.
Are there any controls in the BIOS that I can adjust?
If you're a new user and encountering problems, don't change your bios. Just lower the version, that should fix it.
