Posted March 20, 2017 Hi guys, I am very inexperienced in terms of overclocking and could really use some advice. I have a fairly low-end PC (CPU: AMD A10-7850K, MOBO: ASUS A68HM-K Micro ATX, GPU: ASUS DUAL FAN GTX 1060 6GB OC, 430w PSU, 8GB of DDR3 RAM, and a 1TB HDD) I've been using the ASUS GPU Tweak software to overclock my GPU but I feel like this isn't doing much (possibly due to my extremely low end CPU which already bottlenecks the card). Can someone please help explain the best way to effectively overclock my CPU/GPU, or even assess my build and tell me if I'm even capable of overclocking?
