lucio Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Can I overclock the Athlon X4 860k with the Cryorig H7 so that it runs 4.5 ghz witought bottlenecking? Or is the stockcooler good enough for the job? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeSoprano Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I wouldn't oc any cpu with a stock cooler on it, but if you do I'd keep it below 200 or 300 MHz and keep close watch on the temps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccokeman Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 You can increase the overclocking margin by improving cooling. The Cryorig H7 looks massive and should easily do the job of keeping your chip cool. That being said the clock speed that the chip will run at using specific voltages is another discussion altogether. 4.4 and even 4.5Ghz should be possible.

SpikeSoprano Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 You should be able to play medium to high settings no problem with that build, all depends on how much eye candy you want enabled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucio Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) I'm excually more of a cheap guy then someone who cares for show, but I want to put this next to my TV and therefor it should look a little bit good.
