@snedie69er nope, ur right,usually i upgrade to a new one in 5-6 years ;)
-
CPU's have life spans in the decades, overclocking reduces this time by a few years...ask your self this, are you going to be using this CPU in 20 years anyway?
-
i thought my speakers broke in the begining
-
bios I ment
-
on my motherboard my first option is system info. idont have a motherboard option
-
I have the same cpu as you do so does that mean I can do the same settings as you? I have 12gb of ram does that make a difference? cause I thought you had 4 or 6gbs.

@Jayto91 iive been running and ep45ud3p for almost 3years now with a q9400 overclocked to 3.2 with no probs still running great i also have a x58aud3r with a 920 at 3.3 since day one with minimal probs so not really just keep an eye on all ur temps and all will be ok by the time it becomes a prob ull want to upgrade anyways let the addiction begin

can u pls tell me where are u from?? :P
i've never tried overclocking because i had never a cpu to permit that,now i'm going to assemble a new one,and i wanted to ask if the overcloking does reduce the cpu's life? btw thanx for the video

@Jayto91 Technically yes, but I wouldn't worry about that much unless your temps are constantly in like the 90's. The shortened life-span is marginal and most likely you will end up buying a new CPU before it actually dies on you from overclocking.
