New to the Overclocking neighborhood/ First build

Thread Starter 
Hey everyone my name is Andy, from NC, 22. I have been a computer enthusiast as long as i can remember and currently perusing a degree in criminology. This is my first time trying to overclock a PC and figured I could use some help, also I am an active member on some other forms for my hobbies (special edition mustangs and fish keeping (salt and fresh)). So if anyone needs help in either of them, I'm your man.

I just completed an order on newegg for my first built from scratch gaming PC, so keep an eye out for a build thread in the next week or so. Looking forward to learning as much as I can.
