| if you think you have a heat problem as it is increasing the voltage will only make things worse. increasing the voltage is kind of like giving the processor more power which it needs when it's overclocked so it can make the overclock stable. WARNING: you can damage your processor by putting the voltage too high as it increases temperature, aside from that a high voltage even with enough cooling can kill a processor.

| lowering the voltage will make it more unstable unless you have a good processor. echoing the others, we need specs man!!! ![]()
