This would mean that the mb manufacturer overclocked my cpu not me so who's to blame now and if i was refused an rma because of this can i claim of my mb manufacturer? Granted not much of an overclock but whats an overclock and what isnt?
i don't think that you have something to worry about, if the cpu was overclocked just 1-10 mhz...
but what about technologies like asus' a.i. booster. if some layman enables this in his bios, the cpu is overclocked up to 10% by default. with a 2400 mhz this would result in a overclock to 2640 mhz. furthermore the vcore is being increased.

what happens in such a situation?
