bigben2k, thanks for your lesson in applied electronics (not news to me, but may help others)

I'd just like to point out that the voltage regulator gets really hot when you're volt-modding. Epoxying a passive heatsink to the IC is not a bad idea, it may increase stability when you're at the bleeding edge of what you think your processor can handle.
