Easy to overclock any cpu, but the problem lies in the fact that the more cores a cpu has the more likely one of them wont scale to higher clock speeds as well as the other.

Can end up being a pain in the ass seeing one core failing prime 95 and the other chugging along with no worries. Ends up usually people just send more voltage through the cpu, ive seen people run core 2 setups on watercooling overclocked hitting 70c @ load which is even worse than the prescotts on watercooling.

Next time round its gonna be all stock for me, overclocking is handy and all but some games and apps are more sensitive to it than others, even if prime goes through a 12hour stress test theres no guarantee that certain games or programs won't go haywire with the overclock.
