I got one of the old AGOIA's thats a decent OC now, but i know i can push higher. Jwin what u guys think the max safe Vcore would be.

Right now i have a 1600+ (1.33Ghz) @ 1.75Ghz, 1.89Vcore avg. In MBM5 (the comps been on for 8days straight crunchin F@H) it shows high voltage as 1.92v.

JWin if those temps/Vcore are safe and if i have any overhead. Max CPU temp under load is 51C, Average is 47C, and it idles at 38C.

Think i can push it farther? It's at 10.5x166 right now.

Thanks for any help. I dun wanna fry my CPU

OverVolt,
imo, it depends more on cpu temps then voltage. i've run a Duron @ 1.85 v. reads 1.89 v. for Years with good cooling. I'am also running an 1800+ @ 2.05 V. for well over a year with seti running 24\7 with no problems, Temps on that are with water cooling @ 43 C. So i'd say push it if you have the cooling :)

I suggest you don't go any higher with those temps. 1.85v is considered the max safe vcore with aircooling, and you are already at 1.89v. Either go watercooling or leave it where it is at.
