I understand the H61M chipset doesn't support CPU overclocking, but can I still boost my RAM performance? My setup includes an Intel i5 2400 @3.40 GHz Turbo (operating between 30-95°C), Corsair Value Select 16GB RAM at 1333MHz (8GBX2), and an AMD Radeon RX460 with OC Edition, along with an Asrock H61M-DGS.

It needs P67/Z68. Also, you have dual channel, overclocking RAM won't provide much advantage.

Yes, you're allowed but stability problems could arise based on modifications. I've heard that a tuning app also functions effectively for that board.

95c is close to thermal throttling. Try a different paste or upgrade your CPU cooler.
I'm using just a piece of the Intel i7 6700 cooler and it's really bad for my CPU.

the i7 requires a more efficient cooler to maintain optimal temperatures. Consider getting one soon.
