I am a newbie to OC, so any help / advise is appreciated =) !
My spec is as below in my signature.
I OCed my CeleronD 320 from 2.4G to a whopping 3.6G, by increasing FSB from 133 to 200. I also manually adjusted the voltage down to 1.375V.
Got into Windows 2000, everything is fine. SpeedFan shows 34C / 40C for MB and CPU at idle. This is with stock cooling that came with boxed CeleronD, opened case with no side panels, not even extra fans.
NOW HERE'S THE PROBLEM. Although I manually set VCore to 1.375V in BIOS, both SpeedFan & CPUZ shows VCore as 1.44V in Windows. WHY??
It's common sense that lower VCore = lower Tmp = better life, so I really would like to FIX my VCore @ 1.375V. But exactly how do I do that? Please people, shed some light =)
