How far should i OC?
Hello Guys,
I'm looking into upgrading my i5-4690k and would appreciate recommendations on what to overclock it with. Any suggestions for a good aftermarket cooler would be great. Thanks.
Here is a great air cooler but its huge so your case may not fit it depending on the case

What cooler are you using? Which motherboard do you have?
With a good AIO or a powerful air cooler and decent fans, you should reach around 4ghz. An AIO might let you go a bit higher.
Additionally, each chip overclocks at its own pace, so you might not be able to surpass a certain threshold. Every chip has its own maximum for overclocking. Some users can hit 4.5ghz on a particular chip, while others struggle to exceed 4ghz.
