RickyG512 Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 i got exams, so i wont be gaming at all or doing anything else just playing mp3s while i revise for exams on paper, not word, so just mp3 cpu multiplyer 4x fsb 200 cpu v core 1.1V temp 19 idle 25 load stock amd fan my system is too loud and i cant hear anything so i cant concentrate while revising, but with the above settings u cant hear a thing coz i took all fans out, but is it safe to run cpu below stock (1.35 volt), im only running it at 1.1 volt, will this affect my max oc of 2.65ghz when i go to that speed again after exams. can i go lower in cpu voltage, 2x prime stable by the way Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
osen Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 I never heard about anyone killing their CPU with to low voltage LOL :shake: I don't know what kind of CPU you have, but it sounds like a x2 or dualcore opteron. It should be totally safe. The worst thing that could happen is that your system becomes unstable, and then you just would have to use a higher voltage, it shouldn't hurt your system. And you mention that you can run dual instances of Prime whichs indicates that it seems to very stable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyG512 Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 my cpu is in my sig all my fans are out of my case, its like - "testing testing, is this thing on" even thou it is stable, i dont want to hurt my cpu max oc, will this affect my max oc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
THunDA Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 but with the above settings u cant hear a thing, but is it safe to run cpu below stock (1.35), Sure its safe as long as its stable.. since you ran prime like that it would appear to be a stable underclock..

THunDA Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 my system hasent even slowed down a bit, not at all tbh you probably wont notice it unless your running a game, benchmark or a program that is power hungry.. What alot of us forget, is that a dual core is pretty darn fast even at slower speeds.. We are all crazy_power_hungry overclockers, its just never enough for most of us whether we really need the power or not..lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
