I had to RMA my mobo, and got a new one, so I decided to play with overclocking again. I got my processor up to a stable
My question is, this is with 1.5000 voltage set in the bios. Is this safe to run 24/7? I mean my temps seem almost abnormally low. Like, at 1.42 volts at 3.55 (my old max on my old board) I idled arround 40, and now I idle at 30? Only difference is that I didnt have any artic silver 5 this time arround, so I used some artic silver ceramique. Oh and I got a new case, antec 900.
So is this safe to run 24/7 at that voltage?

I have 2 GTX's but they are being RMA'ed (died w/ the mobo) so I have an HD2600pro for now. I wanted to play with overclocking but I cant figure it out. I tried ATI tool, and the overclock wont stick. It always jumps back to the stock voltage. so then I actually downloaded ati's control thing, and even there I cant overclock. It has the slider bar's but they show the min and max being the same. Just currious how to get arround this? Im probably missing something simple (hopefully)
