Consider this.

There's no such thing as a stable overclock.

You are always introducing instability, no matter how small, when you go beyond factory specs.

i think you should kill yourself

Just because the speed limit is thirty didn't mean you will go to jail for going fourty.

conversely, overcocking is very stable

my 10 GHz Xeon never skips a beat as long I keep pouring liquid nitrogen on it every hour
>>
you lower the lifespan more than not overclocking but yeah, keep it cool and juiced

>>55428429
Even the clock set at the factory is arbitrary, and may be unstable in rare circumstances, which is why server CPUs are often clocked even slower than similar desktop chips at stock.
There is no such thing as truly 100% stable hardware.

My GT540m starts being stable when underclocked to half of default settings.

>Overclock from 3.0 to 3.1Ghz
