About Mac Intel Overclocking: Tips and Recommendations
As overclocking of Mac Pro is now available and other Apple hardware should follow soon, we have decided to provide some tips and recommendations:
A bout Overclocking in generalÂ…
- All CPUs are produced from the same fabrication lines and only final validation tests or OEM requests define their clock frequency.
- Intel has historically always defined a large tolerance for the CPU clock speed, giving room for "safe" overclocking, and in many cases one could gain 30% frequency overclock without playing with CPU voltage.
- voltage is a key point. The higher it is, the higher the CPU will release heat. But the higher it is, and the higher the CPU can be overclocked frequency-wise. However, playing with the voltage could destroy your CPU, so luckily ZDnet Clock does NOT allow changing voltage parameters, so the risk of destroying your CPU with such application are strongly reduced.
- If have been playing with overclocking over years, and many of you have been applying ou
