hi guys I need some help overclocking my 2500k on a gigabyte z77x-ud5h to 4.0 ghertz on a hyper 212 evo so it wont bottleneck my gtx 1070 when I get it soon and stock clock right now is 3.3 any help would be greatly appreciated

raise the multiplier while giving the vcore a slight boost

4.0GHz isn't that much. You should be able to reach 4.5 on an EVO. Look at the vcore though, you'll have to raise it to ensure stability. Try 1.3V and see if your overclock is stable at that voltage for 30-45 minutes. If it is, start decreasing the voltage in steps of 0.025V until it's not stable for that time, raise it to the last stable voltage and stress test for 8 to 24 hours. That should have you covered

Cool, you will have to know the limits of your individual chip. I'd slap 1.25 volts through it and raise the multiplier as high as it could go. Then tweak it from there.

 

OC3D has a great in depth review of the chip if you have time to check it out.

thank you guys so much for the help its greatly appreciated and I have gigabytes 3d bios and I'm not sure where I go to do the overclocking and what I have to disable and that kinda stuff

If you get a better cooler such as a big Noctua or a water cooler, slam 1.36v to it and bump to 4.8ghz or higher, see if she likes high speed.
