And why do you and so many other people say voltage will kill yet NONE OF YOU have ANY proof WHAT SO EVER of voltage killing a CPU. I've asked this MANY times without any proof provided. I'm running 1.65v 24/7 on air cooling with my 165 and it still works flawless. My other chips ran for months at 1.8v+ on water and still work.
Yes, that's what I meant...I'm just not used to speaking in terms of RAISING temps

Proper way to work around the cold bug? There's a few things one could do....for example: What you do -> load the cpu with a "heating" prog in order for it to stay in windows.....

Another is to install a 1/4" cold-plate between the cpu and the evap/container head. For each 1/4" die-sized copper plate, your temps should increase ~ 4C. Your holding/load temps should improve a bit as well.....




How does one prove that voltage killed their cpu? If you think about it, there are many real-world examples of how voltage can possibly kill equipment. You say you've run your cpu's @ 1.8v for months on end. If the cpu was a 1.4V cpu, then you're talking about roughly a 30% overvolt from recommended vcore. How many electronically powered things can you think of which will function properly @ 130% of their rated voltage?
