December 12, 201312 yr Hi I purchased a overclocked motherboard bundle with other components to build a new PC. The build is finished and just going to install windows 7,I have read that you shouldn't install windows os with your system already overclocked as you might get errors due to instability,the company I purchased from said they tested the system for 24hrs for stability and it passed all the tests I don't know how to overclock the cpu that's why I got them to do it.has any one installed the os with a overclock and not had any problems as this seems all that I can do other than resetting the bios and just running the cpu at factory setting I wouldn't like to mess about with the settings myself. My system i5 4670k overclocked to 4.4 asus z87-k mobo evga 770 gpu be quiet darkrock adv cooler corsair 750w gold psu Any advice thank you,jim thank you,Jim MSI A520M-A PRO,AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D 8 Core, 16 Threads 4.1Ghz,Arctic Freezer 36 ARGB Black Edition CPU Cooler,MSI VENTUS 2X Nvidia RTX 4070 12GB Graphics Card,Corsair 32GB Vengeance LPX (2x16GB) 3200Mhz DDR4 Memory,Gigabyte UD750GM 750W Gold Rated Modular PSU,Kingston NV3 2TB NVME M.2 GEN 4 SSD.
December 14, 201312 yr It won't hurt anything to try it...more than likely it'll install OK if the system has indeed been successfully burn-tested. But if you install it and FSX and things turn out flakey, you'll not be able to count on the OS install as an error-free foundation for your build...at that point you'd have to figure out how to downclock it and reinstall.
