Hi all,
Just looking for some advice on overclocking my i5 760. I have checked several guides and, from what I have read, speedstep is the feature which dynamically lowers the multiplier when the CPU doesn't need to be at full tilt. I'm only planning to take it up to about 3.6Ghz, nothing too extreme as I want a decent balance of speed and power consumption.
Most guides seem to advise that I should switch this off but ideally I would like it to stay on as I don't want the CPU to run at its full speed if I am just surfing the web or typing a word doc.
Can anyone give me a bit more of a background on this feature and whether its possible to keep it on/ safe speeds etc?
Thanks
P.S. if anyone has a particularly good guide they would recommend then feel free to let me know
