So i've just gotten my hands on the new Skylake line from intel with the i5 6600k cpu, Asus Z17M-plus motherboard, fortron 750 silver something psu, 8 gigs of ddr4 3000 Mhz ram And i want to overclock my Rig. I don't have much experience overclocking outside of using MSI Afterburner can you run me through the Overclocking process. Also i got a Noctua NH-d15 Cpu cooler. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835608045 So i can cool it heavily.

to overclock the CPU, you need to go into the bios. This video he does it with a 5820k and the process is the same. I would only mess around with the multiplier and voltage to start, but look online for a safe max voltage, if you go crazy there you can damage your CPU.
