well if you go to lyp atoz on the 2nd floor, talk to one of the short specky guy, he smoked a board before. caps gave way.... but that was quite extreme overclocking. i forgot the details liao.

my rigs OC for 6 months so far no problem. make sure u got really good cooling.

ya , increase Vcore - increase temp - fumes

i oc my opty from 1.8 to 2.4 Ghz and have no change in temperature. until when i up Vcore then my temperatue change. even then, its about 2-3C oni. the lower your temp, the longer your lifespan. so don't save on cooling.

well my fren did. the fella use 200w powerlogic PSU for athlon (32 bit) and 3 sticks of ram, 2 hdd. overclock for a year or so then psu burn.

now add antec 450w psu and 2 more fans then no problem liao.

wah i can cook satay on top of that mobo!

if u use table fan to cool ur PC then no need once per week coz it dun get dusty so fast

and table fan provides much better cooling. but mind the noise
