Overclocking Voltage Calculator...

I have come up with an overclocking voltage calculator for figuring out how much Vcore you might need at a certain fsb based on standard stock fsb and vcore settings for intel qdr type fsbs. You might even call it a beta version as I'm not sure if my math is right but the figures coincide with my machine at home. If anyone can check it out and give some feedback I would appreciate it...

Thank you..


Heres the link:

PS: I swear there is no malicious code in there or anything. If you don't trust putting unknown utility on your machine then do not down load it...
 
Looks like a decent app, but you gotta remember that some chips handle higher freq with lower voltage, Beware tho, most people will bash this for being very unaccurate, but then they failed to see the ''for figuring out how much Vcore you might need at a certain fsb based on standard stock fsb and vcore settings for intel qdr type fsbs''.

I tried the max fsb i can get on my e5200, which gives it a 3759mhz @ 10.5, Says i will need 1.472. Almost there, it only needs 1.375V ;)
 
not bad.. its pretty dang close to the voltages i use on my x2 be-2350.. 290x10.5=1.40v (in the app) mine runs at 1.388v but is set at 1.40v.. nice work though.. im sure that there will need to be some work depending on 45nm and 65nm.. but this atleast gives you a good starting point... so props to ya..
 
I obviously need to do more research. This was a first attempt based on just the 'basics' or theory. I was thinking of putting in a check box for nforce or intel chipset as I've noticed intel chipset require less voltage, or check box for how many slots of ram are filled, and then create an xfactor to adjust the final value appropriately by a certain percentage up or down...

I'm also teaching my self how to program in C# so this was fun doing it anyhow regardless how it turns out....

Thanks for your feedback!

So I was wondering what are your stock setting for that chip?
