Maximum Voltage for AMD Athlon 62 X2?

[joh06937]

i overclocked my amd athlon 64 x2 5200+ brisbane to 3.28 (see sig). i have the multiplier at 13.5 and bus at 243. voltage is 1.424 or so (cpu-z goes to and below that number). it is 100% stable with prime95 for like an hour and half or so (i quit after that). could i increase my voltage any more to be able to increase the bus speed or will i be running a risk? the cpu is 65 nm and i have a good heatsink (see sig again) so heat really isn't a problem (now at least). any help is greatly appreciated.

Crank the juice man. Your chip is only worth like $30 or so, even with 1.55 Vcore I seriously doubt you will fry it. I've run up to 1.65 Vcore on AMD chips with no issues.

Worst case scenario is you fry it and have to buy a Athlon II ($60) to replace it LOL.

yeah it is cheap so i totally don't care about cranking it. i guess i'll have to play with it more tonight.
