Hey everyone, I've got a quick question. I recently overclocked my CPU and found myself waking up to the sound of my keyboard in the morning. I checked the BIOS and saw that EPU was enabled, but I'm not sure if it's necessary when overclocking. Here are my specs: AMD FX 8350 running at 4.3GHz, Asus M5A99FX R Pro 2.0, 8GB RAM, Corsair H100i, and a 750W PSU. Any advice?

Hey everyone, have a question. I just overclocked my CPU yesterday and found out this morning that my keyboard was still on. I checked the BIOS and realized I need to turn it off. Should I keep EPU enabled if I'm overclocking? Here are my specs: Amd fx 8350 O'Cd to 4.3ghz, Asus m5a99fx r pro 2.0, 8GB RAM, Corsair H100i, 750w PSU. Thanks for the help.
