Hey guys, I am building my new PC, Here is the PCPartPicker Link - http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/QQsY23

 

I want to know how far I could overclock this Card on those specs, Also I don't want to be getting really risky, I don't want to risk frying my CPU. I am on a budget, so I can't really just buy a new one. Also for the time being I am going to be using the stock Heatsink and Fan.

 

The PC has 2 120mm fans, one at the front, one at the back, when I get the money I am going to change it but for now It will just stay like that.
 

I think I would be able to get atleast 4.0GHz maybe 4.2GHz.

 

( Also Please don't comment something like "Oh you should get this Motherboard it is only $30 more, I am on a budget)

can you even overclock on the b85 boards?

Yes, ASUS released an unofficial patch for cheap overclocking on the pentium.

Thanks guys for commenting and voting on the Poll, also What would be a good Heatsink and fan to go with this CPU for under $50?
