    In the world of overclocking, any voltage below 2.3 is considered good. I was at 2.4 and higher before I delidded the CPU. There is a direct relation to heat and stable voltage - the cooler you run, the lower your stable voltage can be.

    I'm pretty sure you're referring to 1.3 and 1.4v here, as 2.4v is just excessive. Heat production generally rises with voltage squared, so an increase of a factor 2 in voltage would result in an increase of a factor 4 in heat (aka your 100ish w tdp cpu would produce 400w - very little air coolers can keep that below 100C)
    "Does not work" is an error report for a bug between keyboard and chair.

    All hail Artie Effem

    Shit! I am having a bad day for when it comes to posting words which are different than in my brain. Yes - I meant 1.3. Not 2.3. That would just about fry a CPU!
