Hi,
i am new in this Forum and new to overclocking so please be Patient with me. As usual I did some tweaking without properly reading literature. Patience has never been my strong point. Therefore my question if there is a way to check a cpu for integrity. To check if there are any physical damages that may have occured during tweaking. Can a CPU compensate for damages up to a certain Point? Or is it going to be more like 0 or 1? If there is any Kind of damage (for example due to high voltages) it is not going to work anymore?
I am working with a core i5-760 on a p7p55lx with 4x2gb 1333 RAM and I have to say that at Default everything works perfectly stable (checked with prime95 and OCCT). Even slightly overclocked to 3,5GHz everything seems to be fine. But beyond that I am not stable and I would like to know whether this is a matter of Settings and/or OC-ability of my System or any Kind of damage to my cpu?
