just testing out my overclock, set it to 3.7ghz (185x200) 1.30v and everything was fine (actually been running like this for 4-5 days)
So i get to thinking maybe i should start to lower the volts to get the temps down some.
drop it to 1.28v and everything ok and temps down a bit, do some tests which pass.
so next drop it to 1.26v and as soon as windows starts its wanting to install drivers for an unknown device
nothing changed only the voltage so i cancel that and do some tests thinking there going to fail, nope they passed again.
so reboot and drop the voltage to 1.25v and get some popup at startup wanting to send more info, cant remeber exactly what it was , so anyway i cancel that and carry on testing and everything has passed.
Is this normal behaviour or is something wrong, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this ?
this is on vista 64, tests used were Intel burn test, standard and high, and OCCT for an hour , and a bit of superpi.
