Quick question

[Lays]

If I was to fry my 3930k overclocking, what are the chances it ruins my board, and would Asus let me RMA it?

 

 

Would the chip just degrade to the point it'd need like 1.5v for 3.8ghz?  Or would it just.. make a loud noise and throw sparks everywhere? LOL

how long have you had your mobo for now?

Don't go to high on the voltage, and watch temps, and you won't fry it.

Can you answer the question pls

 

 

@SAV1OUR I've had it for like 1 year.

still intend to try and sell the cpu after you get the 3970x? i wouldnt

He wants to push it until it frys, he just doesn't want the motherboard to go with it.

I have intel's tuning plan, I could go for broke with this one then send it back for a replacement ))))

but what happens as the chip dies? does it just degrade so far that it struggles to work? or will it just go POP

from what i have heard about chips getting too hot they just shut off automatically with a temp limit it should boot back after that just give it a bit to cool down though

Well I mean, I can push like 1.7v through it and temps would probably only be like ~85c  but idk if it'll like explode or what lolol

if it gets too past 100 it just shuts off thus the temp sensor hopefully it will close off in time and wont blow up

If you don't over do the voltage, the chances of issues are slim. 

If you over do it, the chances are that the board will literally not work. And depending on your chances, there's a 70/30 that they won't take it having 70, and that they take it being 30.

depends on mobo power handling. CPU could be stronger than the VRM, no guarantee

on which would pop first.
