I want to increase the clock speed of my AMD FX-8320. Here are the details:
CPU cooler: Hyper 212 Evo
Power supply: Seasonic 80plus power supply m12ii 620 bronze
GPU: AMD R9 270X (not overclocked)
2 mechanical drives
1 SSD drive
Storage: MSI 970 GAMING
Any advice?

Just keep in mind that having another person achieve the same cpu speed doesn't guarantee success. Anything above 4.4-4.5Ghz is performing well. Avoid pushing core voltage too high and focus on keeping the CPU cool. Also, make sure to test for stability.
