OK, I have an AMD Athlon XP 1800+ Throughbred B. It default runs at 1.53Ghz with 266FSB and 1.5 Vcore. I have several questions. I plan on my water cooling system to get here tommorrow, so assume i will be running water cooling.
Right now I am running it at 1.66Ghz at 333fsb at 1.5 Vcore.
1. I know vcore increases speed of the electricity to the processor, higher vcore can allow for higher overclocks correct?
2. I also heard vcore can reduce the life of the cpu, if it does, how much would the life be reduced if i go from 1.5 to 1.75?
