I overclocked my cpu to 4ghz and it runs fine , only issue is that the audio buzzes for about 1-2 seconds then returns to normal. This occurs randomly, any fix?
 
Solution
Maybe but more likely its because of the overclocks effecting your audio directly on the board (usually an induced current somewhere affecting your DSP's circuit). It has happened to me and most times easing up the OC or adding a PCIe sound card are your only options though some times a bios/driver update helps if your lucky. I would try updating those first then if that doesn't work make the hard decision on decreasing your OC or getting an sound card so you can isolate it from the electrical noise on the motherboard from your DSP.

thank you for your reply ,I'll look at getting a sound card because I insist on keeping that 4ghz overclock, And also is the induced current an inherently bad thing?

In a circuit generally yes it is bad. In this case it cost you a DSP...will it hurt your OC...nah
