AMD OC'd 3000+ voltage question.

[Godmachine]

ok so i got another 3000+ venice and now i got a DFI NF4 SLI-DR board and i got 290mhz HTT .. but i had to up the voltage to 1.60 to get it and its on stock cooling ...should it be ok taking this voltage for 24/7 or should i drop the speed and voltage for 24/7 usage? here is link with proof : http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=27708

If it's on stock I wouldn't increase the voltage at all. You should just buy a good heatsink for it, it will help your overclock.

Oh, and I assume you mean you increased the CPU voltage. Did you mean the chipset voltage?

Well i have heard that as long as the CPU is under 50C load with 1.60 volts that you are good to go .. and so far my stock heatsink never passes 50C ..

then you're good. If you don't go over 50c then it should be fine, even for 24/7 folding.
