____ is a technique used to make a processor work at a faster speed than its original specification.
A
overclocking
B
throttling
C
super clock
D
multicore
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Overclocking is a technique that is used to make a processor work at a faster speed than its original specification. Overclocking is not a reliable way to improve computer performance and can result in damage to the CPU.

Detailed explanation-2: -In computing, overclocking is the practice of increasing the clock rate of a computer to exceed that certified by the manufacturer. Commonly, operating voltage is also increased to maintain a component’s operational stability at accelerated speeds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Overclock the CPU The most obvious step toward increasing the speed of the CPU is to increase the core voltage clock. The clock is what regulates the amount of energy moving through the CPU and, by increasing this value in the BIOS, you increase the number of bits processed by the CPU in a single second.

Detailed explanation-4: -Overclocking a CPU means increasing the processor’s clock rate-the speed at which the CPU works to perform calculations-above the manufacturer’s specifications. Overclocking works by running a CPU’s clock speed at a higher frequency to execute more operations per second and increase performance.

Detailed explanation-5: -Overclocking is the process of adjusting your computer components’ clock rate or operating it at a higher speed than initially designed to run. Most commonly, you can overclock the central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU), though you can also overclock other components.
