Go up one level in this thread


I think a lot of people here overclock their processor, and a lot here can get
overheated sometimes .... personally :)

You are right, most if not all processor are quite tolerant to overclocking and
with a good heatsink and fan you can overclock easily to 20% or more.

But please don't forget your peripherals: especially your video card. By
applying a higher bus speed they will heat up as well, and sometimes (with lower
quality standard video cards etc.) the problem will pop up there.

I don't want to start an off topic discussion about oc-ing, you're right in
that, but please people don't forget that you overclock more than just your
processor.
