Solved I wish to overclock my 3970X to 4.8Ghz using an Intel BXTS13X Cooler to run stably for 24/7 use. How feasible is this? Tags: Overclocking Cooling Intel CPUs Last response: August 7, 2013 6:13 AM in CPUs Share hidaayat07 August 7, 2013 5:01:40 AM I want to know whether I can achieve this feat. What will the lifespan of my processor look like, since I plan on keeping it stable at that speed for 24/7 use?

But that CPU has the ability to meet your goal of 4.8GHz if you use a better cooler like, say, an H100. Yes, both points clear. m 0 l Can't find your answer ? Ask !
