is minimal at best on a Z68/77 motherboard. maybe 105MHz increase before the graphics crashes or the RAM/PCIe limits are trashed.

bclk is not worth on <6th gen imo 

and a 2120 isn't going to preform good even if you could OC it (more than 100mhz) 

I like to kill hardware. In 2016 alone I have killed 20 Xeon 5160, and 10+ Pentium 4.
