Posted March 11, 2020 If temperatures are under control and voltages are under 1.4V, then sure! You're the best person to know if your Dark Rock 3 can handle it, since you can monitor CPU temperatures yourself and see exactly what's happening.

CPU life does lower a bit if you overclock so the more it lowers life a lot. Blake has arrived!! Just your local tech geek! Love to help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
