Have you ever overclocked your CPU?

[Riberet19]

Overclocking is a way to increase the speed of your CPU's cycles and processes, making the CPU use its full potential and improving overall performance.

Many people do it, for example, to play video games or watch content in the highest quality, but this could also damage your CPU, this is the reason why I have never dared to overclock, have you ever done it?

I never have and I don't know if I ever want to risk it. I have to clean the PC again soon probably and I'm already dreading that. No way would I bother overclocking my current PC.

I have never over-clocked any CPU as you can't overclock every CPU and you also need a compatible motherboard and perhaps liquid cooling to compensate for the heat produced by overclocking. Intel CPUs like the K and X series can be overclocked and they are expensive but I have i7 3770S.

I once did it while using one graphic design software. The software has the compatibility to define and increase the usage rate, then I increased it to the max. It turns out that it had side effect doing so, then I decreased it.

You cannot do it alone you need to give it to a person specialized in CPU and GPU except you may damage your PC if you google tricks and apply them that could be not apply to your PC.
