Overclocking guide/help for the 4690k?

[MysticMeatLoaf]

Hello! Thank you for checking out my thread! Just recently (Saturday 19th July) i bought an intel core I5 4690k. It works perfectly so don't worry  . I was just wondering, This will be my first time overclocking, can anyone give me any guidance / safety tips when overclocking such a beast? For example, voltage control, and ratios etc. I really don't want to break it  . Thank you very much! If it helps, my motherboard is an Asus ROG Maximus VII Hero   First time using the forums, looking forward to getting to know the community 

 

Thanks for reading
