Overclock System

The Overclock System is an experimental system created by both the Earth Union and the Earth Rebellion. It was first properly used by the ERMS-R001 Stargazer Gundam in its complete form.

Function
Like overclocking a computer, the Overclock System boosts the performance of another system beyond normal safety parameter. In unity with the Star-Field Reactor (specifically the Type M3), a piece of technology (either a weapon or a system) can be boosted so it can be more powerful in the battlefield. However, like with overclocking a computer, there are risks in boosting the performance of something, such as if something is overclocked for too long or is supplied with too much power to begin with, the system stops operating properly or (if it is a weapon) even explode from the pressure.

Usually, the Overclock System has its own physical adjuster in the cockpit so that a pilot can control the boost percentage when something is overclocked.

Trivia

 * The idea of the Overclock System is directly inspired by the ZGMF-X71T Arch Destiny Gundam created by WackyModder84 and Animaster.
