I'm building an SFF soon (Shuttle SN45G) and instead of doing heavy 2.4GHz+ overclocking like on a desktop, I'm looking to undervolt as much as I can while still running at a reasonable speed.
My experience with XP-M's thus far has only been my desktop setup. XP-M 1700+ (T-Bred B) 0318 stepping. In the overclocking department, I was able to get 2.1GHz stable on 1.55V, and upping it to 1.60V didn't help. It started getting unstable (probably because it's summer in Florida now) so I undervolted as much as I could (which is 0.10V below stock on my EPoX 8RDA+). At 1.40V, it's stable at 166*11 right now (1.83GHz). I'll try upping the multi more later.
So anyway, does anyone who have a Shuttle know how undervolting on such a system is? Like on my desktop, I can only undervolt 0.10V from stock. If that's true, I'm probably looking at a 35W 1.35V Barton then. I'm thinking of getting the 2200+ for $77, unless the advice is to get a different chip, like a 2400+ 35W or something else.
