Hi. I am overclocking, and have been reading everywhere...just, tryingto figure out what Core voltae is safe for my processor. I know that my processor can take 70degress c...but, thats temp and im worried about puttting too much voltage through it.(See sig) In my bios....i can change the CPU VID control...which i keep at 1.3...and then there is the CPU Special VID..which i usually put to 126%....now ..this adds up to about 1.65..and...im just not sure what is safe to put through it. Iv read to stop at 1.65-1.7 max...but is that just the CPU VID control...or..the Core voltage?...anyway..any help will be appreciated.:D

Click to expand...

i wouldnt go above 1.65. high voltages and heat can kill the processor. however thats my opionon and i would wait for somedoy elses and see what they have to say.
