Overclocking CPU to higher frequency than chipset supports

[dado1111]

Hello,
gonna take a quick way

chipset = A55
CPU = A8-5600k

i found on one website that chipset´s supported max limit of CPU frequency is 4100MHz = 4.1GHz

I want to ask if i should stick to 4.1GHz and not going further with OC and
what can actualy happen when i cross it?

Thanks

In overclocking all rules are made to be broken, those figures are supposedly guaranteed stable, whether you can push past those or not depends on your skill of overclocking. Pushing past those #s requires extra voltage supplied to the CPU, which can be accomplished as long as you can fine tune the necessary bios settings to support the increased voltage and above all have a really good, and I mean really good, cooling solution to do it in the first place.

Yes, thank you, i was just curious if i could damage something, because i was able to find stable 4.2GHz CPU overclock but then i saw this and decided to put down frequency a bit until i get some answer of what this really means and if there are dangers in goin over limit.
I thought if i go higher than limit then my chipset or cpu might fail soon or so but if these are just guaranteed stable limits then i´ll go back to my 4.2

As long as you're stress test stable like from Prime 95 vs 26.6 you'll be just fine.
