cpu overclocking for bf4 multiplayer

[LauroSkr]

would there be a big fps difference between stock i5 4670k and overclocked i5 4670k when playing battlefield 4 multiplayer in 64 people map? Many people say that bf4 is cpu intensive game .

 

 

Thanks

Yes, but your CPU is perfectly able to play that game without any bottleneck. In case of a bottleneck you'd need to overclock your CPU, and that is why it's said "CPU Intensive" 

And if you overclock your CPU I doubt you would have much of a performance gain. Your fine with stock clocks on that for gaming in this point of time.

+1 i dont realy see any potentional bottleneck here, for your stock speeds.

so overclocking cpu is more handy for old cpus and overclocking cpu makes cpu a little bit future proof?

sorry , wont happen again

cpu OC is just for e-peens, GPU OC is where its at.

Well overclocking is not realy needed, you will gain couple of fps in some games offcourse. But still at stock speeds, all games will be very well playable.

Offcourse if you own a K cpu, and you have the OC capable decent mobo, then you could gain the extra free speed. But its not realy needed.

 

I´m currently arguing about some sort of the same discussion, in a diffrent topic lol

and i am not talking about gaining fps in single player games but in multiplayer games ? so overclocking i5  cpu wont really matter in mp games like bf4?

like i said offcourse it would gain, some fps, but i dont expect it to be mindblowing indeed.

Unless you feel bottlenecked, you could give it a try, but i dont expect, anything big.

If you have a K cpu, you can overclock it easaly to 4.0 ghz normaly, just give it a try, and look if its worth it to you.

Not just old CPUs, weaker ones too. Like the Pentium G3258(a dual core cpu) is very weak when at stock speeds, but when overclocked it can match the speeds of the i5s. 

Hope you do understand
