Yes, you can manage it well if you're unsure about what you're doing.
Setting voltage too high or letting it rise unintentionally might damage your processor.
Overclocking used to be a method to improve performance without cost.
It's no longer that simple.
Processors are categorized and the top models come with higher specifications and prices.
Generally, you achieve better game performance by enabling the turbo feature to enhance a few cores.
