so i overclocked my cpu but it ran in aida 64 for over an hour before it crashed. since my pc isn't going to be used at 100% cpu usage for anywhere near this long is it safe to say that this is a good enough overclock to stay stable under normal load. (i won't be rendering or anything like that, only gaming)
if i play games and my cpu usage is say 50% what is the likelihood of it crashing during this? (if it's like 0.0001% chance of happening im fine with it. if it's 1 crash every hour obviously thats not ok.
also I have gone to 1.45v which is amd's max recommended voltage on the vcore. what happens if i go higher? the temps stay under 75c which is well below thermal max and that's at 1.45v.
nb soc voltage is 1.1v at the moment. thinking of putting it too 1.25v like someone else did.
i know downclocking 100mhz is the smart choice however i would prefer to max out my chip unless it's absolutely not feasible. any tips/advice, thanks
cpu=1700x
mobo= MSI X370 GAMING PRO CARBON
ram = cheap 2400mhz 2x8gb ram from crucial. (still not cheap lol)
