    Need help on raising my t9300's default vid for overclocking!

    Ok, so I've disabled the bulid-in IDA function (because it makes my t9300 unstable), now my t9300 locks at 12.5 multiplier with vid 1.250, I would like to raise this value to the IDA's value (which is around 1.325) and hopefully to push my core speed to 3.0~3.1Ghz. I got RT MSR TOOL but I have no idea which address or how to change my current vid. Or am I just in the wrong boat and using the wrong program?
    Thanks in advance :)

    u won't really need to raise voltage to overclock.. anyways , in notebooks we use SetFSB to OC and usally don't need a voltage rise and roasted laptop... so be careful... when OCing laptops.

    Yes I use setfsb to overclock but it is only stable till 2.8Ghz at stock voltage. I think if IDA sets t9300's voltage to 1.325 then pretty much 1.325 is still in the safe range.
