Ok I have an old AMD K6 450+ (im starting small). Ok so its set to run at 450mhz but I have it running at 475mhz 95*5.0 (just alittle overclocked. My problem came when I put the computer together, the AMD k6 chip said 2.4 volts on it so thats what I set the motherboard to. Then I had problems with the system underload running sometimes at 150 degrees F. So I then set the motheroboard voltage back to 2.2volts where it originaly was. BOOM I dropped 10 degrees underload now my system was good. My queston is if I drop the voltage down to 2.0 will that affect the processor in anyway? If I can get it cooler that way I want to clock it up to 550mhz!!! OH WOW THATS ALOT OF POWER!!!
I hope someone understands because my grammer sucks for age 13. Thx
