1) i have no idea ( i don't think it is a k series)
2) Asus H81M Plus mobo
3) 550w
4) stock intel
5) i don't know where to look for case fans
6) ^

If you don't know where to look for case fans, then maybe a good idea to leave overclocking alone.

If there is meant to be one at the back there isn't. But airflow is alright there are two grill things that are for aesthetics i think but i do feel air coming out and i've got a grill which about 23cmx20cm.

Do you want a picture of my case? i have no idea of what model it is on the box it said gamermax but i don't think so

Sounds like you don't many fans.

Speccy will specify if it is a "k" chip or not.

my take on it if you need more speed just buy a new CPU

I am not a big fan of over clocking
