Raising Card Voltage?

[Volume]

If I raise AGP Voltage through BIOS from 1.5 to 1.6 will it hurt my card at all? How much hotter will it make it run? Someone mentioned it as a fix for many artifact problems (which appear on even brand new or RMA'ed cards).

Bump. What should be the safest voltage for an AGP card?

I did use google. And it's not the only resource out there so I wanted first-hand experience opinions. Quote and rebut this as you'd like.

Sometimes it bugs me how people are always bitching when people ask questions

As for the question, I know enough about computers to not be a noob, and I don't know too much about that setting.

I've heard that it doesn't really even help anything though.
But that's just what I know.

From what I heard a little while back,changing the voltage in the bios for agp does nothing but heat up your card, you have to do a volt mod to fix artifacts when overclocking and get good cooling with it.
