Does adding the extra .1v to the northbridge help overclocks much?

I'm thinking of getting a Thermalright NB-1C for my northbridge, ditching the stock NF7-S 2.0 fan, but I don't wanna waste $20 if it won't make a difference. So, how much does an extra .1 volt on the northbridge help with overclocking in general? Stock it's at 1.9, looking to get it to 2.0 volts. Any help = appreciated
 
stock should be like 1.6 but it helps with the fsb alot i raised it from 1.6 to 1,66 on my epox (had to do a vmod) and i got from 211fsb to 222fsb stable.
 
Well, I haven't messed with the chipset voltage, and I believe it's at 1.9v right now, or maybe it's 1.8...I'll have to check it out.
 
well its should help a lil as the stock abit cooler is REALLY crappy. I would just get a nb1 tho from svc for $10. I have one and I run it fanless and its great (fan hits cpu cooler)
