This is a list of problems that TacoNuts believes is the most important things to note while and before overclocking. They are listed from greatest importance to least. If you think that something should be added or is out of order email us . Heat Heat causes all sorts of problems for overclockers. From burning up chips to instability problems at faster clock speeds.
Electricity conducts better in some materials because of electron mobility.
Metals, for instance, allow electrons to migrate freely from atom to atom. When current is flowing, even the most conductive of materials resist the flow. The atoms actually break up the stream of electrons. The more the atoms move about, the more they get disrupt the stream of electrons. Cooling the substance slows the atoms, and lets the electrons flow more easily through the lattice of atoms.
