Undervolting?

[Nate Silvers]

I lowered the voltages of my CPU and North Bridge

Can this cause problems or slow downs? I lowered until I got BSOD and raised until I got into Windows. My PC played Cryostis game fine.

I have a Q9450 and Rampage Formula mobo. My CPU is 33 degrees with fan on lowest and NB is 45 degrees goes upto 55.

Shouldn't cause any problems or slow downs as long as you have given it a good stress test using Prime95, OCCT or similar.

I am just testing that now it all failed lol so upping the volts a bit more

Ok dropped the NB core from 1.6 to 1.3 atm so should run a lot cooler than auto (1.6)
