CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 423

A user wants to overclock a GPU but is concerned about potential overheating. Which of the following would best address the user's concern?

Answer options

• A. Thicker thermal pads
• B. Liquid cooling
• C. Larger heat sink
• D. Fan upgrade

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Liquid cooling is the most efficient method for managing heat produced by overclocking, as it can dissipate heat more effectively than air cooling solutions. While thicker thermal pads, larger heat sinks, and fan upgrades can help, they may not provide the same level of cooling performance that liquid cooling does, especially under the increased loads from overclocking.
