Intel OC etc

[LLv34_Flanker]

S! 

 

Been using an Intel CPU as a stopgap measure before new AMD CPUs come out. Happy with the performance, no issues. But as it is a K model I wonder how to clock it? 

 

It is a i5 10600K on a MSI Z490-A Pro mobo. What settings should I look at and adjust if I wanted a modest OC with a good air cooler? Should I go all core or single core OC? Any tips appreciated as not done any OC since Slot A Athlons ? And there are so many options in BIOS.. ?

Do a search on Youtube, lots of info there.

Since it's an MSI motherboard, that's where I'd be looking. MSI, along with most motherboard manufacturers, have overclocking utilities for their motherboards that will make this process easier and safer than editing the BIOS directly. And as noted you'll be able to find Youtube videos specific to the motherboard and/or utility.
