Hello to all,

What actually happens when we overclock a Processor? Not in terms of FSB/QPI stuff ,but rather basic concept.How does Processor behaves internally for the increase in voltage/freqency?

Thanks to all

This is outside the scope of our software development forums, and is also an area where Intel cannot provide advice sinceoverclocking voids the warranty on Intel processors. You might try posting your question to an overclocking forum in order to obtain responses to this question.

It goes faster until it fries (and your warranty gets voided)
