Yeah, sorry, I promise I wasn't smoking crack the other day, but I have no idea why I made that typo over and over again. I meant 1.36 volts, NOT 3.6 volts.

Cheers,

No. I'm a moron, and meant 1.360 volts, not 3.6 volts.

My CPU does not run at 1.36 volts continuously. My overclock is set up so that the processor can downclock to 1.6Ghz when not in use. My vcore is 0.952 volts …

Try 4.6Ghz. I don't know what kind of cooler you have but if it is a good one you won't have any issues. I have a Hyper 212+ (so, air cooling) and I can hit 4.6ghz EASY with a vcore of about 1.360 max and load temps never exceeding…

Just be careful when overclocking. Every motherboard is different. The best thing to do is google someone who has made a guide for your mobo, or find someone who has overclocked that same mobo + cpu combo. That's what I did with my…

What is strange to me is that my CPU is NOT running anywhere near 100% load, not even on a single core. Why isn't NS2 utilizing my processor more?

EDIT: I semi-retract that statement. It does look like one of my cores i…

Look at RealTemp in that picture, it says I'm running at "1941.82 Mhz." That's because I have my processor overclocked in such a way that it clocks itself down when it is not under heavy load. It usually idles at 1.6Ghz (1600 Mhz) …
