What is the safest highest voltage for a s478 to be at? right now I have it set to 1.375 in the BIOS, but with my P4C800-E, of course, the voltage doesn't stay that. Right now it bounces between 1.38 and 1.41. Last night I tried booting at 4GHz. It posted and began to load Windows, but then restarted itself. Ok so now I need more voltage.
BUT...
I have a Cooler Master Jet 4. Not exactly the best cooling method for this. It's decent for 3.6GHz (what I'm at right now), but of course 4GHz... not happening, especially when I up the voltage. Sometime in the future, I'm thinking about going with a XP-120 like every other friggin person in here that's on air cooling
If I am able to keep the temps under, oh say... 55C (load, idle, whatever) with my current cooling solution, what is the highest voltage I should put it at? I'm not going to run it permanetly, just want to run a few benchmarks and take a few screenies.
Thanks
