Is nonk overclocking on sandy bridge an actual thing?
i've got an i5 2500 and i heard that you can move the clock multiplier for +400mhz so you get 3.7ghz with 4 cores and 4ghz on 1 core.
I've been also told to set the BCLK to 105mhz

Why not just buy a used 2600k or 2700k?

why wouldn't i just get i5 2500k/3570k once i'll be able to afford one?
