It says 1.75, and i heard some saying, 1.6 should be the right one....and it should lower my cpu's temp if i put it on...should i or leave it on 1.75 (50c with side case on, 45c with side case off)

the athlon xp1600 runs at default 1.75vcore. the new .13 tbred chips run at 1.60 vcore default. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I would leave it at 1.75v

I would have to agree with shuki.........but it looks like you could use a really good copper based HSF and some Artic Silver 3, the combo will drop your temps a good 10-20.

Just food for thought
