my specs:
cpu: i5 4690k
psu: cooler master 500-ACAB-B1 (500w)
gpu: zotac gtx 1060 6gb amp! edition
cpu cooler: cooler master hyper 212x
motherboard: asrock z97 killer fatal1ty
ram: 16gb ddr3
how much can i overclock? will my psu suffice? (i want to be sure, even though i think 500w should be sufficient)
EDIT2: i actually have a i5 4690k, not a i5 4590k. typo
EDIT: i suppose when i’m already inquiring about overclock limits, could anyone share some advice on how to boost my cpu? this is my first time doing it.
