![]() ![]() But enthusiasts looking to extract maximum performance from their PCs still need to pay close attention to cooling. Nowadays, chip manufacturers design a wide range of protection mechanisms into their components, preventing careless combinations of settings or a lopsided heat sink from doing harm. ![]() Eventually, your CPU or GPU might destabilize or even fail. And if you run your overclocked build at too high a temperature, a phenomenon called electromigration can degrade your chip’s circuitry at a rapid pace. When temperatures rise too high, silicon can throttle back its clock speeds to preserve itself, harming performance. ![]()
