hi, im pretty new to OC, and finaly got this OC setup to work stable.
I did run the CPU stress test for 30 min and played CoD Warzone for 7 houer and still it going smoothly. temp is around 66 degreeAnd, you did WHAT, exactly, to determine that the overclock is stable?
Clearly, you don't actually understand how this works, and that's probably no fault of yours but it would definitely be time to educate yourself about just HOW important stress testing is, regardless that you are not "going to do heavy mathematics" which literally has nothing at all to do with it anyhow.
Having an unstable CPU or memory overclock isn't really about the potential for blue screens or other obvious errors, although those are certainly a concern as well. Far more serious is the potential for complete, system wide data corruption. A few weeks of an unstable system putting an extra one here or two zeros there, when there should be only one, will slowly corrupt everything you touch, including personal files, photos, operating system files and registry entries, ALL of it. Eventually, sometimes within a few days, sometimes weeks, sometimes months, but sooner or later, if the system is not stable, you WILL start to see evidence of it but you will NOT have any clue that is what is going on. You'll just think some piece of hardware is failing prematurely OR that Windows itself is to blame. Maybe a bad update or driver. But in reality, it will be due to an accumulation of micro errors.
Game files, saves and installers. Corrupted. Your edited photos. Corrupted. Windows itself. Corrupted. That is what CAN happen if you run an unstable system. Not worth the risk. Do the work, or don't do the OC. Simple.
This, you should at least read, and then decide what to do from there.
