That's not how overclocking works.

Every CPU will get different voltages and frequencies that it is or isn't stable at.

It's called the silicon lottery.

You pretty much won't be able to get any overclock on such a bad cooler.

Leave it at stock, you'll probably be getting over 85C already.

Too new to know some good starting numbers.

Come Bloody Angel

Break off your chains

And look what I've found in the dirt.

 

Pale battered body

Seems she was struggling

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands

Why did you come to this world?

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!

 

Pyo.
