This is total nonsense. WISE overclocking will make the CPU comparatively stronger than its original state. Take my case where I overclocked by 800Mhz and the difference is huge. You can always return back to your original clock. The lifespan is shorter but by how much? In our modern computer age, a life span shorter by a bit does not play much of a role as CPUs become obsolete quickly.
