hey guys, i need some help please.
i live in Africa, where the ambient temperature is a bit high... sooo cooling is important for me, since i just have a stock cooler from intel for now and the temps are a bit high (60-70 idle) i would like to know what's the lowest CPU voltage i can put on my processor so it gets cooler...
my pc consists of :
Motherboard - Asus P5N32-E SLI PLUS
CPU - Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ Stock
Graphics card - Nvidia Geforce 8800GTX @ Stock
RAM - 2 GB RAM (Legend i think, not very impressive)
HDD - 400GB HDD Seagate Barracuda 7200.10
power supply - Procase 550W
the VID is 1.2750v and i lowered in the bios to 1.17v and the temperatures dropped to 50-52-50-49 idle (using coretemp )
how much lower can i get?
i appreciate the help
tks in advance
