can i overclock it ?

hello there,

 

since a while i started gaming again on my pc but he is a little out dated.

now i don't have enough money to spend right now to buy a new one i still want to game.

 

so i started to thinking about overclocking it. but i am not 100% sure it can handle/do it.

maybe you know what to do or how to do it.

 

CONFIG:

 

CPU: intel core i7 920 at 2.66GHz

MBO: gigabyte ga-ex58-ud4p

GPU: gainward radeon HD4850 golden sample 512 MB DDR3

CPU cooler: arctic freezer pro 7 rev 2

PSU corsair hx620

Just take your time and follow some guides perfectly and you'll be fine. Just be patient,go slow , if you try rushing you fuck something up.
