[QUOTE="Lasherž, post: 8726855, member: 679555"] A word of advice for starting out, overclocking won't damage a computer, but overvolting will. Motherboards and CPUs can handle quite a bit depending on the value you're messing with but memory can't. It will work but greatly shorten the life to the point that it's going to fail eventually if you go like .1 volt above rated. The issue with memory is that every bit can fail and intermittently crash you later on. You don't wanna mess with memory issues, it's one of the most frustrating parts to diagnose. Sometimes the problematic bit will expose itself during a memtest, sometimes it won't. [/QUOTE]
