Go to solution Solved by Colt_0pz,

When I'm folding and 100% of CPU power is being utilized the CPU has a temp of 63 degrees, would it be safe to over clock and till what temperature. I'd like to add that I have a factory made motherboard and I have a i3 processor.

Thanks in advance.

can't overclock an i3, sorry

You can usually overclock, But not with multiplier. You would have to increase the base
