You should try it to extend your hardware life, im still on my ancient 6-7 year old x58 rig. Nowadays as long as you have a good cpu cooler it practically automatic if you stay within the limits, i.e do a 20% overclock, run 65prime95 blend test for 20 minutes and check temps, if ok increase OC by 10% etc. until you find your max and when you have the max dialed in with decent temps reduce it by ~5% for everyday use.I never over lock and I really should. I have this strange fear something is going to blow up in my face. Also, not getting my rift this week gives me time to do a thorough computer cleaning.
GPU OC's is the same procedure but quicker as you can do it with Afterburner
