I currently overclock my graphics card, CPU and RAM. I've modded the graphics card BIOS for better power delivery and modded my motherboard BIOS to have the latest UEFI drivers.

Need to upgrade my CPU fan first, but apart from that, all my components are suitable for overclocking.

I could lol but my computer is already strong enough to play practically anything at 1080p max settings at 60fps
Maybe I will one day if I feel like it's struggling to keep up

I have Core i7 6700K @4500MHz 1.35v, 16gb DDR4-2133 overclocked to 2400 (Hynix RAM), GTX 750 Ti 2GB @1463MHz/1600MHz (going to upgrade to nVidia Pascal sometime early next year) (BIOS modded with power limiters removed and increased voltage table, if measured using digital multimeter probs running at 1.25v), 2TB SSHD, Gigabyte Z170 Motherboard with my own modded BIOS and Enermax Revolution 87+ 850W PSU.

I probably do extreme overclocking in the future such as de-lidding the CPU and overclock it on single stage phase change cooling, liquid nitrogen or liquid helium if the CPU or GPU doesn't have the cold bug and learning to solder ohm resistors on the voltage controller. Looking at those Kingpin records on hwbot.

I probably would have to be sponsored by like a company because I will killling a lot of hardware after benching due to excessive voltage.

With cards like 750 and 780 gtx I can see why you guys need to overclock the cards to the max lel

I do a stable and silent overclock, nothing too hard especially in the current summer

6700k to 4.2ghx
GTX 980 to roughly 1300mhz
DDr4 2400mhz to 2700
I use a Noctua NH-U12s for cooling, does the job well, haven't gotten above 50*C which is very good.
