I just wanted to know what is a good safe amount of voltage you can give a pentium 4 2.4b without burning it out. I want to get to 3.2 but i dont want to up the voltage to much. and what would be a safe voltage to put the memory at.

Not really ;)

Generally anything above 1.75V is considered dangerous. Northwoods are known to die if you overvolt them too much.

Just to be on the safe side I would not over volt more than 0.10v from default as these processors now have multi voltages and I find it hard to keep track of what voltage is for what stepping of the processor.

Hope that helps, for more info go to either www.overclockers.com forum or to www.ocworkbench.com forum.
