If you don't understand that then you shouldn't be overclocking.

I dont no mate,i think about it in the first place they're strong enough to last for donkeys yrs at 24/7 by design and the other parts, and they would probably absorb some of the strain or affect if u o'c-it a bit.Mo mate dont worry about life spans mate and if u plan on upgradin' to go with say gaming.Just concentrate you dont mess up what you're are doing now. gamin' or what you do otherwise mate .

no just get hot, i have a Abit running at 2.5 volts for my ocing... mainly you should think like this... higher the volts= hotter you could pobably get pretty far as long as cooling can handle it... but yes too much would cause it to melt...

higher vcore also reduces ur cpu&#39;s life span.

abu are you having any problems at all? if the temps are so low and your computer is running stable then why are you worried about the vcore?

i actually have to agree, i actually modified my mobo so it could handle bigger vcore settings for the bigger clocks i was pushing... I wouldn&#39;t be complaining about your predicament...

i&#39;m just trying to find out wat vcore will damage my cpu. can&#39;t anyone here give a straight answer?
