So I made this video about stock vs overclocked PC where is overclocked CPU i5-6400, RAM HyperX Fury DDR4 and GPU MSI GTX 970 and test them in 11 games. Biggest difference is in Crysis 3 (20%), Metro 2033 Redux (20%) and GTA V (16%).

 

1. Grand Theft Auto V

2. Batman: Arkham Knight
3. World of Tanks
4. Metro 2033 Redux
5. Far Cry 3 
6. Project Cars
7. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
8. Assassin's Creed Syndicate
9. Total War: Attila
10. Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor
11. Crysis 3

A bit of a dumb question, it will make a bigger difference the older the CPU is, plus RAM does make a difference at higher speeds.
