Default CPU Voltage?

[jtzou]

Whats the Default CPU Voltage for a P4 2.2 Ghz? I'm doing some OC-ing, and I think it can max out at 1.85. The lowest is 1.1 though... With DDR, its default is 2.5, and can raise up to 3.5... Does that mean that my Default CPU Voltage is like, 1.05? I wanna push it to 2.6 Ghz (120x22), but I wanna make sure there's enough power running through it...

i would seriously advise you against pumping 1.8 volts into your pentium 4, it will kill it seroiusly. because of the 0.13 micron process of the northwood the inter-connects and transistors are so sensitive to the additional voltage that after a few months of a pentium 4 being overclocked it will probably die.

my 1.8a does 2.4 @ 133 bus with 1.55 volts
my 2.2a does 2.5 @115 bus with 1.60 volts

even with water cooling or freon they are still dieing cos of the added voltage.
