I just bought the 2400g and i'm wondering about overclocking it. How far can i pusht it ? Thanks

 

Wouldn't worry about the APU itself

 

what motherboard?

 

Memory Speed is way more important for it's graphical performance.

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

What games or other software do you need to run?

How far you can push it depends on temps. There are voltage limits but temps are the main thing.

If the board has a poor SoC VRM, or just no SoC heatsink, it's likely to cook with an APU.

Its the GIGABYTE AX370M DS3H. I'm kinda aware about this mobo after doing a quick search after I bought it that it has pretty bad vrm heatsink

You probably don't want to overclock an APU on that board.

 

Doesn't even have an SoC VRM heatsink, which is where the GPU will draw all of it's power from.

 

Would have highly suggested either an ASrock Pro 4 or MSI Tomahawk.
