Overclocking is addictive!

Exclusion of Liability, so beware

Overclocking should prove a positive experience for PC enthusiasts. However, problems can arise when you deviate from the processor manufacturer's original specifications.

Overclocking voids product warranties, so take great care at all stages of the process. Monitor an overclocked system carefully, even if it appears to be stable and functioning properly.

Manufacturers offering product warranties for components within an overclocked system are not responsible for any damages suffered, regardless of whether product failure or damage is either directly or indirectly associated with overclocking.

Invoking warranties or agreements for components in an overclocked system is an ethical issue. Common sense and law require the user to assume all liability for any part, hardware or software, used in conjunction with overclocking.

Once we have achieved a goal in life, it never seems to be enough, so we adopt a greater goal. The same is true for overclocking. Once you become adept at it, you may find yourself perpetually tweaking your PC, always seeking the smallest performance increase, temperature reduction, or improvement in stability.

What started as a desire to save a few bucks and keep from upgrading can turn into a pricey, time-consuming, endless pursuit. Your dollars can disappear into cooling components and case modifications.

And you may find yourself spending too many hours on the web discussing the search for maximum performance.

Not to worry, though, you're in good company.
