Overclocking Dangers

Overclocking Dangers

Various settings within your system's BIOS can be adjusted to overclock you CPU bus speed. This will allow you to run your processor faster than it was intended which can be an extremely dangerous thing to do.. The terrifying result can be an overheated processor that will eventually heat up and actually melt onto your board. The quick fix is to install a larger fan, but overclocking also voids your warranty and there's no quick fix for that.

Overclocking will make your cpu work much harder and the temperature will increase. Then your PC may overheat and become unstable which will cause system crashes. If your overclocked processor does work for a time, its days are probably numbered because electromigration (interconnect failure) will eventually destroy your cpu. Of course it may not happen at all - you may discard the CPU before failure occurs. Overclocking simply raises the odds against your CPU fulfilling its' lifetime duration. Obviously a soon to be replaced computer is a prime candidate for excessive overclocking.

There's also a danger of fire along with the loss of one of the most expensive components in your PC. Not worth it for minimal speed gains in our opinion and that is why we will not attempt to show you how to overclock.

Safer PC Boosting Solutions

If you are like most of us, still waiting for PC prices to drop to the VCR level, you should consider the addition of extra RAM. Many people do not realize the speed increases associated with extra RAM. It can do wonders for a slow system. Another excellent option is a pc accelerator. This will safely add speed to your computing tasks through optimization.
