I'm currrently running a 3200+ winny on my K8N Neo2 Platinum board. It OC'd to 220 FSB. I realize this is a mild overclock by most standards, but it's really all I need. I'm running stock CPU vcore settings and it's rock sold. My question is (which is probably a stupid one) is there any reason I should increase the voltage or is stock voltage just fine on an overclocked CPU.

Thanks

It's fine as long as it's stable. If you notice instability you could try raising it a tad.

The Winchester's seem to do pretty good on default voltage though. Mine (3000+) does 2.4ghz at 1.4v, but won't do 2.5ghz until about 1.55v.

How can you "notice" instability? Is it just freezes and crashes or are there more discreet things you can tell?
