Because of the computer configuration is not very understand, last year to go with a computer, with the CPU is PD915, do not know, a scare jump.
PD915 in the winter, running up to about 30 degrees, feeling very normal.
But in the summer, the temperature has risen to 70-80 degrees, the ego feels a bit unbearable.
Baidu search for a bit, see most people are suggested to change a better fan, said PD915 original fan is not good.
But I also saw a small number of people talking about cooling the CPU by setting the core voltage of the bottom-down CPU in the BIOS.
But they did not say in detail, I had to find out my ASUS motherboard (my ASUS motherboard model is P5PL2-E) manual, referring to the instructions, set up a bit, after running, the temperature drop has about 5 degrees, generally 70 degrees, unlike the previous operating 75-76 degrees.
To set the method in the BIOS:
Select: Advanced > Jumperfree Configuration > overclocking
By default, the value of overclocking is Auto, and this value is changed to Manual (the meaning is set separately)
After setting up Manual, there are many new options, find the CPU VCore Voltage, this is the core voltage of the CPU option, the default is Auto, My computer originally I look at the time is 1.25V, I put the voltage to 1.2V, did not dare to set too small, save, restart the computer , with the relevant software testing found that the temperature drop of about 5 degrees, the effect is good.
Note: The value of the CPU VCore voltage is not set too high, or it may damage the cpu!

The PD915 temperature is too high to cool down by setting the core voltage of the BIOS down-bottomed CPU.
