Default 2.3v Safe For 24/7 Use?
Well it wasn't easy getting my CPU to 3.0 with stock cooler, and i had to raise the memory voltage way up there, is 2.3v ok to run all the time? Or should i work on lowering it or lowering my overclock?

Also how much more voltage can the NB take safely? (Above the stock, mobo doesnt say stock it just says +<value here>)

What is the stock voltage on the memory?

With 2.3v, I would make sure you have a fan cooling it or something.

It's fine...I run some of mine at 2.4V.

And memory doesn't need cooling, don't fall into that sucker punch.

Yeah it took me 15 minutes when i saw the first RAM heatsink and thought "this is a load of crap" to find an article analyzing the heat output. Surely enough RAM has absolutely no need for cooling.
