Selling cpu should I mention that I overclocked it?

[Ferenzee]

Title says it all. I'm selling a cpu and had a good oc on it at a good voltage for that cpu (fx8350), I don't remember the exact numbers but I do know that it was pretty good. My question is would you buy a cpu if the previous owner had oc'd it? Would you be more likely to?

I would mention it. It would also be good if you knew what the OC was so the buyer would know that the chip was stable at a certain OC. I would mention it even if I thought it may diminish the value - full disclosure.

What they said ^^^, but use that word in the description when selling it, "Overclocked at X.X stable" STABLE.... people like that word.

Yes. Honesty is the best policy. If you OC the cpu for any length of time and it remains stable, ppl will want to know.

No different than buying a car. I'm sure you'd want to know if grandma owned it, babied it and got regular oil changes vrs a punk k kid with a lead foot who never checked oil or coolant till it overheated.
