Greetings, I would like to ask a couple of things. Here's my situation: I currently have an Intel Pentium R Dual Core 2.80 GHz stock I overclocked it via the BIOS by just changing the multiplier thing to 333 and now it's running at 3.50GHz, also i changed the voltage to 1.36250V which is the max the processor can handle I would like to ask if that's right,also does increasing the voltage make the cpu more powerful

Hello Dan95,

Well in this case that information is not available since Intel has not tested, and does not warranty, the operation of the processor beyond its specifications. Intel has not tested, and does not warranty, the operation of other system components beyond their industry standard specifications.

For further details refer to the link https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/gaming/overclocking-intel-processors.html Overclocking Intel® Processors.

Regards,

Amy.
