ok so wats a Overclocked CPU's, estimated life??? say E6400 at 3ghz?
or if u want to take extream overclocking a E6400 at 3.8ghz (this is for example)so pretty much overclocked to the max while still stable how long do u think they'll last before they jst die(years,months,days?)?
so jst generally 2 questions kinda
1. ok so wats a Overclocked CPU's, estimated life for a modirate overclock say a E6400 at 3ghz
2. and second a Overclocked CPU's, estimated life for a extreame overclock max until unstable say somewhere between 3.4ghz-3.8ghz(depending on ur cpu)

it's impossible to tell, OC'd or not, what the life of a CPU will be in my opinion.
in what cases is 3.0Ghz not fast enough? That's more than enough for any game...
you're not going to notice a huge performance jump at 3.4 or 3.8Ghz...

I've overclocked some computers and had regular computers and in my experience it is never the CPU that dies but some other component like the hard drive or memory. Once this dies the computer is usually to old to repair.
I agree with icepack though, there is no reason to have an extra .4Ghz. You will not notice it and if you are concerned with the life of your CPU don't do it.
