Should I oc CPU?
Hi, I've got my Gtx 1060 and amd fx 8350 bundle. Others suggested it's a smart move to overclock for optimal performance. I'm curious if that applies to my setup. My specs are: GPU - Gtx 1060 with Evga superclone 6GB, CPU - amd fx 8350 with Wraith cooler, motherboard - MSI 970 gaming. If you're thinking about overclocking, could someone explain the process clearly?
There is always a chance when increasing performance beyond the standard that you need to ensure your system remains fully stable before proceeding with the final speed setting.
If you attempt overclocking, don't anticipate a significant boost in gaming performance—you might only see a 5-10 fps improvement at best. This means you should consider whether the effort is justified.
