Overclocked CPUs will only run hotter if voltage is increased beyond default. Many CPUs can achieve a significant overclock without raising the voltage.

- tzs 11y ago> Overclocked CPUs will only run hotter if voltage is increased beyond default Raising either voltage or frequency increases power dissipated. P = C V^2 f, where C is a constant that depends on the physical structure of the gate, V is the voltage, and f is the frequency that the gate's logic state is changing.
- andromeduck 11y agoIsn't C capacitance?
- rl3 11y agoWell, that was an embarrassingly ignorant statement on my part. Thanks for the correction.
