Can I overclock the CPU using only the multiplier?

Hi

I herd a lot of things regarding this,
As I have a black edition CPU I was told all the multipliers are unlocked,

Can I just set the multiplier higher and leave the frequency at stock?
or will that not work?

cheers

well my mate said just whack it on the highest multiplier, although I dont think he realises how many I have as I think I'd be running about 20ghz lol

might have a play

ok cheers

well err... I tried using just the multiplier and left the frequency at stock but the clock speed and multiplier in cpu-z is now fluctuating :/

does that mean the voltage is too low?

just checked and even on stock settings its still fluctuating,
Is that cool n quiet related?

thought it might be cool n quiet,
cheers

had it just under 3.8 but didn't wanna stress it cos I didn't know why it was fluctuating

cheers all
