Need some opinion regarding cpu voltages!!

Ok, I FINALLY got my 2500 to work at 3200 speeds decently. Now, I can leave it at stock volts, and everything is good. But right now I have it at 1.675 volts. According to cpu-z, that fluctuates between 1.5, and 1.6 volts. Would it be better to leave the cpu voltage on auto, or you think this will be fine where I have it ( I dont like a lot of heat). Would the amount of heat it generates even be worth risking stability? I am really scared to touch my voltage since EVERYTHING is running smoothly. Thanks!

You're perfectly fine running at 1.675v and I personally wouldn't be worried at all. Putting the CPU voltage on auto will use the stock voltage of 1.65v and could hurt stability.

1.675 is fine if your puter is stable. if not stable l.70 or 1.75 seem to be the comfort voltages for the barton 2500 @3200 speeds. just make sure you have a good heat sink and fan (even for the 1.65 setting)

probably fine, but may be flucuating due to a crappy powersupply... got a good one?
