I have an intel core i5-750 with an aio water cooler and I've hit 38° so far after about 20 min in game, but I barely have the fan turning until I hit 45°c then they start to ramp up. I also have a Rtx 970 which will be upgraded to a 1080ti ftw edition soon.And 8Gb of corsair vengence pro and 4gb of corsair XMS2 DDr3 ram. And the big fan is always running full speed.
Will overclocking the cpu help lower the cpu strain and reduce bottlenecking in these games ( FF XV, Forza horizon 4, Ark)? I'm running between 38-55 fps in FF on high settings at 120hz and 1920x1200, between 40-60 fps on FH4 on high settings at same rez, and 55-60 fps on Ark on medium settings same rez.
I'm working with very little cash here so I'm trying to use what I have. Oh and im running an EVGA H55 Mb
