does increassing the vdimm lower performance??

I ask this question cause i have achieved 13000 3dmarks (2001) but since i upped the voltage i havent been able to do the same it tops out at 12000. Maybe i have altered something recently


HIghly dissapointed
im running

tbredB 2100+ @ 2250mhz (1.85V)
thermaltake aquarius 2 water cooling
soltek sl75drv5 (kt 333)
raedon 9500pro (320/320)

perplexed indeed

increasing the voltage to your memory helps to stabilize it when overclocking. it should have no effect on actual benchmarking programs.
