Hello Jdavis,
I am pleased to hear that your CPU has been successfully replaced. If the replacement unit is functioning without any issues, it indicates that the microcode update is compatible with it. Regarding the safety of overclocking the CPU, please be aware that modifying the clock frequency or voltage may void product warranties and could negatively impact the stability, security, performance, and lifespan of the processor and other components.
If you are considering overclocking the CPU to enhance performance further, you may proceed, but please be aware that it is at your own risk.
For reference: How to Overclock Your Unlocked Intel® Core™ Ultra Processor
Should you have other questions or concerns, please let me know.
