Overclocking a AMD FX-6300 (3.5ghz) to 4.0ghz
I ran prime95 for about 3 hours and 2 of the workers/cores failed the test. I was wondering if it is PHYSICALLY ok to keep running my computer at this clock and voltage despite that. What i mean is that if i keep running at this clock, will my pc actually get damaged over time or will i just risk crashes from time to time?
Other info:
- Played fallout 4 for about 6 hours, no crash.
- Using the msi 970a-g43 for overclocking (terrible MoBo for that I know, but at least I have a liquid cpu cooler, northbridge cooler, and 4 case fans to try and combat the poor thermal regulation on it.
