Does Clockgen (or any other Windows OCing program?) allow you to raise (or lower) the voltage beyond what the BIOS allows? For example, I need a microATX board, but also want to overclock it a bit...the board I'm looking at has no options to change the voltage. Can I do this using Clockgen?

This is a socket 754 motherboard using the nForce3 150 chipset.

I wouldn't count on that. Sometimes if the board itself supports the voltages but they were left out of the BIOS on purpose, it might be possible to get them with clockgen or something. Usually though, the BIOS will include every possible voltage, and if what you want isn't there then it's impossible to get.

From what I hear you don't need much(if any) of extra volts for the 90nm s939 A64 chips to get quite a decent OC. Maybe it'll be the same with a s754 90nm chip?
Btw, I don't know if such beasts even exist, but if so you must deffinitely get a PCIexpress s939 uATX board instead... provided that you don't plan on using your current AGP card or s754 CPU :p
