Posted February 3, 2015 Hi I want buy and build my first PC (Click here for the specs) I have some question about Oc'ing with my CPU. Is the air cooler enough for (light) overclocking? Is Mugen 4 or Coolermaster Evo 212 better? If I do Overclocking, do I have still guarantee? My budget is around €35 / $40 (US) I live in the Netherlands DutchRedGaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 3, 2015 I would have to disagree and say don't overclock at all with the stock cooler. I would recommend something aftermarket first.

Posted February 3, 2015 I would have to disagree and say don't overclock at all with the stock cooler. I would recommend something aftermarket first. Depends on what temperatures you get. Normally they're pretty bad at stock, let alone OC'd, but if you can then eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 4, 2015 I am able to get away with 1.275v while still having reasonable temps with the 212 evo, however, it is not the quietest cooler. It is great for small overclocks, even on a 4790k CPU: I7 4790K(4.6@1.252v) Case: Fractal Design Define R5 Windowed(Black) Cooler: CM 212 EVO + NF F12 iPPC RAM: HyperX Fury 1600MHZ CL10 2x4GB Storage: Samsung 850 EVO(250GB) + WD Red(2TB) PSU: Corsair RM750 (and no, it hasn't blown up!)
