Hi,
I got the phenom 960t (thuban)

What is the max voltage for the cpu/northbridge?

Also whats the max voltage for the cpu?
 
CPU NB I wouldn't put anymore than 1.5v in, although some people don't even like going north of 1.4v

For the CPU itself 1.55v would be the max I let going through a Phenom II.

Ok thats sounds good.

I have my cpu/northbridge at 1.3v and I haven't been able to get it fully stable at 2800mhz.

Now I know I can take it higher I will put it on cpu/nb on 2800 1.4v.
 
have you unlocked the cores?

my nb is stable at 2800 at 1.2v

I my cpu I can get 3.8 at 1.32v, temps skyrocket after that and it's not worth the extra noise/temps.
