I'm planing to buy this computer:

 

Sapphire Radeon R9 390 Nitro Backplate 

Intel core i5 6600k 3,5 GHz

Gigabyte GA-Z170-Gaming K3

Kingston HyperX Fury Black DDR4 2400 MHz 16 GB (2 x 8GB)

EVGA superNOVA G2 650W

Samsung 850 EVO series 250 GB SSD

WD Blue WD10EZEX 64 MB 1 TB

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo 

Design Define  R5

 

Is there anything i should change and how much can i overclock my i5 with Hyper 212 ?

That looks like a nice build. And yes you can oc with a hyper 212. I have a i7-6700k over-clocked to 4.4Ghz running at around 8 degrees Celsius at idle.

 

Edit: i would say you could get that cpu to around 4Ghz but check to see how stable the overclock is.

Also what country are you in/where are you getting the parts from?

I would recommend putting some more case fans in, i dont know with how much the define r5 ur buying comes with

it comes with 2 fans, which are fine.

woah 8 degrees, is a bit low, but 80 would be high for idle

to game or not to game, that`s the question

Just think I might be getting something wrong, idle is when no programs are running right? (yes laugh if im wrong).

 

Edit: Also I don't have a GPU in this system atm because I couldn't afford one, I went with an i7-6700k because it has the best intergrated graphics and was pretty high-end.

yeah, you're right. Which is why I think it's a bit high. Is it always overclocked?

to game or not to game, that`s the question

wait, how is it high? 8 degrees Celsius or 46.4 degrees Fahrenheit actually seems cold/good for an idle temp with oc. And yes it is always over-clocked.

 

Edit: hahaah its gone down to 5C now :)

Something must be wrong, there is no way your cpu is at 8 degrees celsius

woah, so you're saying your PC at idle is 8 degrees celcius? I thought you misspelled 80 lol. In that case, where the hell do you live? The North Pole? Do you use sub-zero cooling? Do your tempsensors work?

If your room is at around 20 degrees, your PC can not be below that, while it outputs heat. So your sensors must be failing

to game or not to game, that`s the question
