True, the electronics are very advanced, but BF2042 also has a lot of bugs.
I always unlock the battery with my finger. I bend the latch loosely enough to loosen the battery slightly, then pry the battery from the other side, I have never broken/bang this clamp too much. If I did it with a screwdriver or another tool, then what you mentioned could happen.
I only had to remove the battery twice in my life, when I chose the wrong voltage for the OC (too low voltage) and don't worry, I never exceed Vcore 1.3, 1.3 is actually probably the maximum safe voltage in practice, higher voltages are a lottery, something will go wrong or no, especially since the motherboard, even with CPU Vcore Calibration configured, can reach a voltage of 1.35 V at the 1.3 setting, so I don't want to say what can happen at 1.4 and higher 🙂
Once I broke the rule of not exceeding the Vcore voltage of 1.3V, it ended up burning the CPU due to too high voltage. (at Vcore 1.4, the motherboard dropped the voltage above 1.45 for a moment - which killed the processor (i5 8600K)), but since the service gave up and was late with sending back the processor (they exceeded the time limit of 3 weeks xd), I had an argument to change it for an additional fee processor on i7 8700K, and since the service technician was not very knowledgeable, he did not check at all whether I was overclocking the xd processor, but immediately sent it to Intel abroad. I didn't have to overclock the I7 anymore because it can handle even BF2042 without any problems.
I7 8700K at 4.9 GHz managed to achieve Vcore 1.28. I didn't reach 5.0 GHZ, the motherboard holds the voltage too poorly, probably at a voltage above 1.3 5.0 GHz would work, but this time I didn't risk it xd.
After testing how much GHz I could overclock the CPU on my motherboard, I went back to stock clocks and I still play like that to this day.
