Overclocking Fx 4170 4.2GHz

[ONEnONLY]

Hi, I recently bought the cm 212 evo and i wanted to overclock my cpu but i have a couple of questions. 

 

Motherboard - Gigabyte - GA-990XA-UD3

 

Will I be able to stream on twitch better if I overclock my cpu? If this is a no then i wont even try it because I don't really have any issues except that i can only stream at 720p/25fps.

Is my mobo good enough?

How do i do it? (I'm really bad at this kind of stuff, never done it before)

 

Right now I'm getting about 40°C while running a stress test so i think there might be room for overclocking.

This is the primary question, so I need to know. What's your upload speed? Also, your max bitrate/buffer size? Make sure all else is default. Finally, what program are you using to stream? It's possible that your CPU is a bit behind, but I need to know this in order to be certain. Also, what game(s) are you having trouble with?

It's okay hehe, so my upload is 3 Mbps(download is 62Mbps) but i dont know if that changes anything. Bitrate/buffer size - 2500. I use OBS

Okay, have you tried lowering the bitrate/buffer size at all?
