1.9v is pretty good. If you dont have decent cooling i wouldnt suggest hitting 2.0vcore. Need to get some better cooling to push it further or at least a low ambient temp.

Is that load or idle? If its load you can push it to 2.0vcore but i would watch those temps like a hawk.

mine is clocked to 1.96 at present but with no voltage changes anywhere. i think its currenty at 352fsb with a 14 or 15 multi. Havent got precise numbers because i havent looked for a while. I use the already well known to this site aero 7 which im sure some people on here think i worship...


...well it is a unique fan...i use the normal average thermal paste from coolermaster.

Do you have to run that much vCore...try to boot with less and run folding@home, I think you'll be suprized...and as a side benifit less volts means less heat...you have an unlocked desktop barty it looks like, so give that a try...
BTW what skin are you using, looks killer...

LOL, I've just ordered one of those.
The HS looks good, but the fan is going straight in the "doubt if that will come in handy bu it's slightly too good to chuck" pile.

10 to 19 cfm? Puh-lease
I can fart more than that

I have mine running at 2.31 at only 1.65 vcore and 420 fsb. You should easily be able to get more than that.

I have a screenshot of 502 I just posted yesterday at 1.84 on air. If it's unlocked, it should be worth lots more.

See?
