HI
I got an asus Nforce 2 board with xp2400+
I boot ok and runs ok with 1.65V vcore @2.25Ghz.
It good enough for me now. I just wonder if I can stay at this speed for encoding movies 24/7 and leaves comp on for 24/7 as well.
Is it OK to do that with and Overclock processor?? Is it too much stress for the CPU?
I am looking to have its lifespan ( with OC ) at least for 2 year.
Advices please
thanks
 
In the bios, I set it to 1.65V ( i am set to user defined )
but when I install Asus Probe.. It tell me the voltage is 1.712??
What is the right ones?

Most motherboards slightly overvolt to increase CPU stability, so 1.712v is probably accurate. As long as you have good cooling you should be good to go for a long time!
