This is not the dangerous part of overclockong, but setting voltages higher on cpus, combined with not enough cooling can kill one, or reduce lifespan

[@Guavamente]

It’ll usually still throttle if it’s any good, I would be more worried about your motherboard. If you have a cheap cooler your system will crash, if you have a cheap motherboard it’ll still run like a fucktard until it blows its capacitors

[@37racso]

@@Guavamente setting voltage too high can and will fry your cpu, especially if you set values too high for boot and state transitions. Jayztwocents did an entire video on how he fried his cpu because it used higher voltage on boot and essentially fried itself

If it's targeted at 4 and you set it at 5 or 6 is it fine?

[@bluestonedust]

If the CPU tranches 100°C It will turn off the sistem automatically (It can also causes several damages to the CPU)

It makes sense it would be slower, but I wonder how much a generation changes it. Like, if I had a fx-7xxx and it needed to OC by .25mhz to equal an fx-8xxx cpu. I know there would be fluctuations and changes to each Gen, but I wonder if there is a normal level that the new Gen improves over the old one.

[@Guavamente]

You can also just let your computer fail to boot three times and it’ll automatically boot into the UEFI with default settings, you don’t need to tear apart your computer to pull out the CMOS battery. Some motherboards will also have buttons to reset the UEFI or jumpers if it’s meant for overclocking. Some expensive MSI motherboards or the like will also have tweaking features in the OS for overclocking that will allow u to make changes on the fly and show instability before your system crashes so no repetitive rebooting needed

[@ShreyasBharadwaj]

Nope. You’ll run into setup time violations way before 1.5x the base clock speeds.

[@oscaride283]

If I remember correctly, you also have to change the value of the voltage higher (depends on how much you overclocked your CPU). So if you go like 1.4V , you risk that your CPU is getting destroyed

[@TheDarthJesus]

This is the real risky part. You need to up the voltage to keep the overclock stable, the higher voltages require better cooling, which is why people going for world records use liquid nitrogen to cool their cpus. This video isn't exactly accurate.

[@minttu5381]

Yep, that's why you have to gradually increase the voltage in OC to check how's the cpu doing and how's your cooling capability to handle the temps

Water cooling (I assume you mean AIO) is nothing special, it doesn't magically perform better. It just takes a little longer to heat up because of a larger thermal mass. The temps will be the same, or worse, because surface area of the fin stack would be about the same, or lower. The air coolers are just as good as water coolers,
