Understanding risks of overclocking

Makes overclocking the cpu to work beyond their technical specifications and that means some things to consider before implementing it.

Firstly and I think the most important is the fact that if we overclock our CPU to lose their garantee and technical support in the event that one day stop working.

The purpose of overclocking is to make the chip work faster if i like electrical component operates on a higher frequency will also be hot if they work in normal mode. The heat that follows a long-term potential to damage some components and shorten its life. Joule's Law said P = V * I where P is the heat dissipated by the CPU, the V is the voltage and finally I is the intensity or current required by the microprocessor to work. Likewise, if the voltage increases (overclock) and in the same way electricity is a higher wattage, the greater intensity and higher temperature.

If you want to know more can search on google the effect of electromigration.

In the same way if no overclocking is done with caution at all times and knowing what they are doing this may cause unexpected problems such as faulty electrical signals, reboots or simply the operating system crashes.
