My friend is getting a super good deal.IMO at least

 

$400 USD for gtx 770,2500k,seasonic 620 gold psu fully modular,8gb ram,corsair 600t

 

he will be adding ssd and hdd combo.

 

 

Mobo is asus Gene.

 

it has a antec cooler.

 

1.Will it have any problems overclocking

 

2.What should i do with the bios,if it has a multiplier do i need to update still?

 

3.Is it gonna have a lower clock speed as silicon lottery worsens? or it doesnt?

 

4.Will it affect the lifespan of the cpu Greatly?

 

5.What clockspeed should i put that will not bottleneck for future games?

yes it will have all the problems in the world overclocking, if you even install MSI afterburner it will blow up,  If you even touch a benchmaking tool your CPU will melt

If anyone couldn't tell sarcasm to the max

no legit answer? :'(

Go back and stick to the one thread, ask MANY questions in the ONE thread.

There has been answers in the old one anyway that relate to this ;)

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz
