if i raise the voltages from within bios of my abit ic7g, without overclocking, is this going to add stability, and if yes, how much raise should i do and to which components?

if you ask this question you should completely stay away from it... :wink:
but as the most humorous greek ever this will not stop you, that for sure :grin:

I have no idea on the topic, as I'd be only interested in the reverse process - keeping temperature down. Any fan noise drives me nuts.

:lol:
a guy from abit forum told me that if i raise without overclocking i should do it only for ddr and suggested 2.7 volts dor the ddrs, but he also stated that this might not add stability.

now far from jokes these days in greece are very hot.
stability is a little sh..sh...shaking!!
i am looking for ways to increase it or for a cooling solution but to be honest i don't like watercooling.
meanwhile air doesn't do anything..
i don't know. :roll:

i think that dsps are hot.

lets say that i use watercooling.
if i cool down cpu, vga and chipset, this will affect pci slots temperature as well?
i mean is it going to be helpfull for dsps?

it will not work due to moisture :sad:

fyi - clock rates are so high meanwile that the rules of current flowing through copper lines don't apply anymore. At least not in every part of a mobo (as it was years ago).
It's about hf waves surface flow (or whatever it's called) - pretty wierd stuff, btw.

one PC in the oil bath and one in the fridge would be the perfect fastfood workstation.
A handful of fried potatoes and an icecream or a coke now and then... :grin:

cheers, Tom
