Hi I have got the i5-6600K and would like to over clock but anyone know any good software that'll areas test it and so I can see things like the temperature. Thanks

aida 64 is free trial and will let you see temps . Intel burn test is also good.

 

Do not use prime 95.

 

Also , use the bios to OC.

AMD Ryzen R7 1700 (3.8ghz) w/ NH-D14, EVGA RTX 2080 XC (stock), 4*4GB DDR4 3000MT/s RAM, Gigabyte AB350-Gaming-3 MB, CX750M PSU, 1.5TB SDD + 7TB HDD, Phanteks enthoo pro case

The software for your motherboard should have OC'ing and monitoring functionality. ASUS also has stress testing and auto-OC in their software. Aida64 is better but the motherboard software is a good place to start.

Dont OC from bios at first, only once you get more comfortable.

When in doubt, re-format.
