Default Overclocking x710 BE

If you install a fast, uncluttered OS (say, Ubuntu/Gnome minus unneeded
distro stuff), removing all unneeded extensions, you won't need to
overclock.
With your cool hardware, your machine will fly. Good luck!

Bro, I use windows 7.
I'm using Intel core i3 processor.
Do I need to overclock to get more speed?
I heard its kind of risky. is it true?

Hi
I know the potential benefits of having the phenom II tri-core including the chance that the fourth core might unlock, but I know Intel stuff better. How far do you think I could overclock an E7400 with a decent aftermarket hsf and P5Q Pro motherboard? I'd like to hear a little more than just "get X it's better", is it illogical to choose an E7400 if pricing is similar to the AMD tri-core (Phenom II 710)?

For motherboard I'm considering P5Q Pro on the Intel side or Biostar 790GX on the AMD side.
