Yes I will overclock up to its maximum 4.5Ghz. Up to 20K only for motherboard. Not only for gaming, I have lot of works to do with that. for example: CAD drawings, Animations, Graphic Design, 3D Modeling, Simulations etc., Especially the simulation works and Animations need a hard core processor that gonna process many threads as quick as possible, that's y I choose i7 3370k for its reasonable price.
