What performance boost is achievable with LGA775?
There should be at least 25%-40% airflow across the VRM and NB (MCH). Depending on cooling needs, my Q6600 can reach up to 180W at 1.5V core, so a 150W cooler or watercooling would likely work. Which one are we talking about?
The overclocking experience on that Gigabyte board should be smooth, but the gains rely on pushing the clock speeds as high as possible, which in turn is influenced by the cooling solution used.
You're considering an upgrade for your old aluminum cooler with a basic fan. It's a common choice, but you're curious about water cooling options and the potential performance gains. If you manage to install a quality water cooling setup, you could likely push the system further and see noticeable improvements in performance.
I believe you can anticipate a minimum DDR3 RAM and RX 460 performance there. Use some software to make it easier to overclock the GTX 750 Ti, and it's safe to adjust the speed as needed. If it goes higher, your GPU will restart to default. Be cautious about increasing the voltage for extended periods, as this could reduce your GPU's lifespan.
