I have M5A97 motherboard and AMD Phenom II X6 1055t which is currently running at stock speed-2.8ghz. I'm using stock cooler. My default voltage was around 1.400v's and i dropped it to 1.250v. Temperature really decreased after this tweak, i ran prime95, played Crysis 3, Battlefield without any issues. I also set NB frequency and it's 1.125 now. Everything works perfect, i run games at 45-46c if they're not huge system depended games like Crysis 3. At stock voltages, i even saw 60-65c in Crysis 3. Max temp in Crysis after my voltage tweak was 51c which is awesome for me in my opinion.
My question is, should i decrease voltages a bit for better cooling ? I have to use stock cooler for a while and my strategy is"stock speeds, cooler and stable" so i need suggestions.
NOTE : I have Thermaltake V3 case which supports 120mm fans, i have 2 front intake, 1 bottom intake, 1 side intake, 2 top exhaust, 1 back exhaust fans (Cooler Master BC120). I think my fan setup is okay for my case, but i'm not sure about 2 top exhaust fans. some people just set one intake one exhaust for top, however i'm happy with my current system setup.
