my future computer (maybe)

I got a piece of advice for those that think about overclocking by using a software, DON'T! I was using asus ai suite to overclock my cpu and got a bad overclock (overheated two times leading to BSOD).

And updating the BIOS resets the BIOS settings (i learned that the hard way).

well i had quite a simple job when it did come to overclocking thanks to the motherboard.
All i did was raising the core voltage to 1.250v and changed the multiplier (45, 45, 44, 44).
Only ''hard'' part is to avoid too high voltages and/or too high multiplier, if you got a fairly new motherboard so don't i think it should be too hard (it took me under a min to find a stable clock i was happy with). If you fuck up, just flash the bios (or reset it in bios if you can).
