AMD says overclocking blows a hidden fuse on Ryzen Threadripper 7000 to show if you’ve overclocked the chip, but it doesn’t automatically void your CPU’s warranty::AMD explains the hidden fuses behind Ryzen Threadripper 7000 processors and how it will handle warranty claims.

Most people don’t consider enabling the advertised memory clock speeds as an overclock.

We aren’t talking about taking your CPU and overclocking it. We’re talking about a simple UEFI checkbox that everyone is told to do.

Who the fuck is “we” here? Because the article is about CPU overlocking. I don’t give a fuck about the parent comments offhand comment about Intel. Intel is irrelevant here.

Your comment I replied to was about reviewer CPU benchmarks.

Who the fuck is we is literally the entire industry. Intel, AMD, every reviewer I have ever seen. Everyone.

Seriously, look at ANY review. They’re all done with XMP or DOCP profiles set, just as the CPU manufacturer, motherboard manufacturer, and memory manufacturer recommends.

I don’t give a fuck about what your offhand opinions are, I’m taking a out the reality. And the reality is that everyone is told to enable XMP.

Your comment I replied to was about reviewer CPU benchmarks.

You know memory speed impacts CPU performance right?

Enabling XMP isn’t overclocking the CPU. It wouldn’t blow this fuse.
