Hi guys,
I've been a member of SPCR for a while now but haven't posted much. Just to let you know that I've undervolted my (multiplier locked) XP 1600+ from 1.75V to 1.60V on my Soltek DRV4 without any trouble at all and shaved a couple of degrees. Still at default clock speed. Hehe, I was a bit nervous at first but it booted fine!
Idle temps are now about 39C, 55C under intensive stress. All without any exhaust fans. Me very proud. Does anyone know if it will go much lower?
Hmm. Now I need to look into undervolting my graphics card. Can't seem to find much material on the www though .
Just undervolted, shaved a coupla degC

I've got a better idea- duct your CPU to make it an exhaust fan. Not only does it add an exhaust fan, it will actually reduce the noise like a muffler a bit, I think, but most importantly, it deposits all of that CPU heat outside of the case, drastically lowering temperatures- my northbridge is 6C hotter without the duct, but thats my only way of measuring case temps.
