I7-14700K, ROG STRIX Z790-E Gaming Wifi II, Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6400. Overclocking guidance pleas

Requesting help or guidance to squeeze out a couple of percent more performance.
My goal is to lower temperature and gain some performance with some slightly tuning on CPU and RAM.

Current running latest BIOS 1801 with kinda default settings except running XMP profile on RAM
and Aura in Stealth Mode, fans/AIO pump running in Silent profile.
I want to runt some test/benchmark to get a baseline and compare after some adjustments.

Ive read that some do undervolting to both gain some performance and also lower the temperatures slightly.
Load Line calibration are also commonly adjusted.

My GPU is an old GTX760 2gb so there are no performance at all 🙂 it kinda works in older games. But its really not matched up with my CPU.

So, where to begin? Take some BIOS screenshots and post? Downloading and installing some benchmarking software if im not allready have them installed. Im thinking of Cinebench in particular. 3dmark and superposition maybe but they are more of gpu/cpu in combination or such..

Hi @Orfeous 

Honestly? You're completely GPU bound for gaming.
