Machine checks are a hardware problem, not a software problem. They are often the result of overclocking or overheating. In some cases, the CPU will shut itself off once passing a thermal limit to avoid permanent damage. But they can also be caused by bus errors introduced by other failing components, like memory or I/O devices.
Dynamic frequency scaling (also known as CPU throttling) is a power management technique in computer architecture whereby the frequency of a microprocessor can be automatically adjusted "on the fly" depending on the actual needs, to conserve power and reduce the amount of heat generated by the chip.
The purpose of overclocking is to increase the operating speed of a given component. [3] Normally, on modern systems, the target of overclocking is increasing the performance of a major chip or subsystem, such as the main processor or graphics controller, but other components, such as system memory or system buses (generally on the motherboard), are commonly involved.
Apple’s latest iOS 17.0.3 aims to prevent phones becoming ‘too hot to touch’
Scrolling through page after page of deals is my kind of bliss, but I know not everyone has the time (or patience). So, I did the legwork for you. After hours of research — and maybe a little ...

US shale producers would lose market share if Trump's policies slash gas prices, Bob McNally said. "You cannot have $1.50 pump prices and a thriving shale oil sector.
However, the amount of overclocking is limited by the time for the CPU to settle after each pulse, and by the extra heat created. After each clock pulse, the signal lines inside the CPU need time to settle to their new state. That is, every signal line must finish transitioning from 0 to 1, or from 1 to 0.
