Hey guys, My Q6600 g0 is currently at 3ghz which is cool but my cpu voltage is around 1.36v. That is higher than the recommended voltage by intel but should this be a concern for me? The cpu runs idle around 30 degrees right now with load temps of around 65-70 degrees. Any comments and tips are appreciated. Thanks!
Q6660 voltage?

I am using a Zalman 9500 cpu heatsink so it will not be cooling as well as your Tuniq mgcook. But I will give it a try and see if it can handle Prime95. Are you currently prime95 stable? Mine runs at 3GHz 24/7 as well.. so I am concerned about possibly destroying the CPU if I mess around too much.. the lower voltages should mean less heat though so I will give that a shot and see how it works.

I run mine at 1.28V and it's a B3 that's at 3.1, could probably go higher with that voltage.

I've had my voltage as high as 1.375 in bios but the droop on my board is ungodly.
