Before I order my new PC which has the option of being OVERCLOCKED....
Not being an expert I always assumed overclocking would put extra strain on the components and obviously the processor, and hence shortening its lifespan.
Folks who say they know their PC stuff say its not a problem, and the PC supplier says Overclocking is not problem, as long as suitable efficient cooling is provided.
Obviously id like the PC to be as fast as possible and if overclocking is a safe option, id order it........what do you experts reckon ?
The details of the overclock are as follows
"AMD Kaveri A10 7700K (10 Cores - 4x CPU + 6x GPU)
STANDARD CLOCK SPEED = 3.4Ghz Per Core
OVERCLOCKED SPEED = 4.0Ghz Per Core"
Hope this makes sense
