I have an AXIA "9" T-Bird 1.2GHz which will run it's default speed with 1.525V (according to Bios, according to VIA HWM it's 1.54V) very stable and pretty cold at about 37°C. #When I overclock it to 1.4GHz it will need a higher voltage (yet runs with less than the default of 1.75V) but when I boot with higher speeds (1466MHz or 1533MHz or anything between) I have to rise the voltage to very high levels and my system will crash after a while (most likely because it get's to hot - the temperature is always rising with those speeds).
Could it just be a cooling problem? I'm usin a water cooling system that allows me to adjust the preassure between the cpu and the heat sink with a little screw. I fear to screw my system if I make more preassure. I still use no heat conductive paste or one of those Athlon CU Spacers - could those help me?
Thanks a lot...
