Hello all. I am looking to over clock both my CPU (AMD Athlon X4 630 propus) and FSB (motherboard is MSI 870a-G54)
This computer is my first build so I am completely new to over clocking and want to avoid damaging my components. I have a 550W power supply, which I reckon is enough for SOME overclocking.
So that brings me to my main two questions:
1) What are the biggest risks involved with overclocking and how do I avoid them?
2) My motherboard has overclocking options built into its BIOS. Do I need to manually change the voltages?
thanks in advance for any answers
