Thread title says it all.
I am curious as to how many of you use Offset voltage and how many of you use Manual voltage.
Those of you using Offset, have you noticed that it lowers your temps (both idle/load)?
Those of you using Manual, have you noticed it raises your temps (both idle/load)?
Me, personally, I use Manual voltage, as I haven't even delved into the Offset voltage option. But, now that I've seen so many people have great success with it here in Intel CPUs section, I may have to just give it a shot. I use Manual voltage for benching, because it's much easier and usually my method of cooling is Dry Ice, so no need to worry about high load temps there.
But, for my 24/7 OC, I am going to start messing with Offset voltage. Off to do that now!
