How would I go about figuring out how to vmod a motherboard?

I saw the same possibility, and to get the conclusion that I must add an additional source, I believe that is your way, by the hard experience, to damage is to learn, is better do not touch the configuration, with devices that are not created specifically for the equipment, I have a damage hard disk, for do not listen to me.

Get another mother board and processor it will be better in the long run they are so very cheap, with many being up dated almost every 3 months or so. I don't know where you are based but a look on the web will bring up many hundreds of traders willing to give you a good deal. Trade up to a full dual core system.

My current setup will max out any game and get insanely high framerates (almost 300fps in FEAR with max settings). I just spent my upgrade money on an awesome cooling system, which is a much better investment at the moment. If I were to make pointless upgrades, the parts would quickly become outdated, and I would be back in the same spot as I was pretty soon. Instead, I got an insane cooling system and made my current computer as fast as some newer ones. And my cooling system will never get outdated, so it will carry into my next system. Thanks for the advice though, I just decided to take a different route.

Heck! Pump 110 through it! Whatever doesn't smoke, keep. What does smoke, replace. It's as simple as that... Of course, you may be replacing a lot of stuff before the smoke stops coming out of things... Yeehaw!!!

Now go and have yerself a beer!

Look hard on the motherboard and find out with IC is the voltage regulator for the CPU. Note the part number and manufacturer. Google for its spec and data sheet. If you still don't know what to do, get another MB which allow higher core voltage.

By the way, what have you done that make you believe higher voltage will allow you to OC it higher?

Also Google NF4X and mod to see if there are any helpful links. It could be a software solution. OC forum like hardocp would be more helpful then here.

Thanks for the help. I just added a 320w TEC to my cpu, and the temps are in the negatives. At 1.85v and 3.2GHz, the temps stay at or below 10C. That's not bad for an old 754 pin processor. As for other motherboards, there aren't any 754 pin motherboards better than this one. Nonetheless one that'll allow a higher core voltage. Thanks for the advice though, I'll head on over to hardocp :)

Ya know, years ago there were a whole lot of over-clocking devices on the market for just about any computer (that used to exist). These were very aggressively marketed in the computer magazines. However, it anyone actually read a review article, it was always pointed out that even if your CPU was running fast, you couldn't tell the difference between a modified and non-modified computer because the CPU was spending millions of cycles just waiting for things to go into and out of memory, which was in fact the real gating issue to better performance.

Before you give up, you should at least take a look at this...
