Hello Everyone,
This is my first ever build so I am a noob to BIOS and overclocking...I will be editing a lot of footage on Adobe Premiere and After Effects.
I am in need of help configuring my BIOS and Overclocking in general for the CPU and my 12GB G. Skill RAM.
I would like to get to 3.8 GHz on my 980X on Air, I have a pretty hefty Noctua heatsink so I don't think it will be a problem, also this new thermal paste: Indigo Extreme.

1. If I were to find fans, which 120mm and 140mm fans do you suggest?
2. Another Question on RAM:
If I am loading up all 6 dimms with ripjaws, with they be clocked at 1600 Mhz not 2,000 mhz? If this is the case, should I go with 1600 mhz memory with lower cas like:

Questions on BIOS:
1. Any guides for Gigabyte X58 boards in general for overclocking? I checked the UD9 thread which didn't have any how-to information.
Thanks Everyone.
