Hello, I have a stock cooler installed on my CPU and I'm interested in overclocking it, but I'm not sure how to do it. Here is the cooler I have: https://www.pccomponentes.pt/cooler...gY...LvEALw_wcB My CPU runs at 3.7GHz and increases to 4.3GHz when rendering tasks. My PSU provides 650W, what are the optimal settings to boost performance? Thank you for your help!

8th and 9th generation intel core cpus produce significant heat with only slight noise. A water cooler is usually necessary to avoid overheating and potential damage. Consider stress testing without noise and check if temperatures exceed 60°C. If so, refrain from overclocking.

For one person, a new cooler is necessary. A suitable CPU overclock will surpass the cooling capacity of the Hyper 212.
Then, share your PC's specifications. You should be using either a Z370 or Z390 motherboard to enable the CPU overclocking.
Thirdly, 'Psu, 650w' isn't enough. The quality matters. Could you tell me the brand and model of the PSU?
