HalloKitty posted:While I understand the sentiment - I think in spirit that the SKUs should be validated for a high speed and turbo to their stable limits out of the box - I think overclocking has always been about getting a little cheeky bit extra for nothing, or indeed for the hell of it (certainly not nothing in the case of custom watercooling or liquid Nitrogen). You're not getting a bit extra for nothing. You're trading chip life and stability for it. Now whether that trade is perceptible or even a concern is another question.

At this point it should be pretty apparent that your overclock ability has way more to do with the magicalness of your chip and not the poo poo stacked on it.

Zero VGS posted:I used Arctic Silver 5 since I had some at work. I used a suuuper thin layer, so thin that after a couple minutes I had 95% covered but then the index card I was spreading with was revealing bits of the heatsink metal instead of covering it up 100%. I plopped on the cooler from there, and it was surprisingly slip-sliding all over the place until I lined up the crossbar perfectly and got it clamped down. Isnt this like the worse way possible to apply thermal paste.

I would hope anyone overclocking is following rule 1 of don't play with things you can't afford to replace

I would just abandon the idea of replacing a CPU socket

ive overclocked the 675m in my sager before but really there just isn't enough thermal headroom to do much

pretty certain you cant actually raise the voltage on modern GPUs to a harmful level without firmware fuckery so you just crank that poo poo to 11 then shoot for the moon on clock and hope the chip is a good one
