I think the real problem is the regulator chip is only rated at 20 amps.
So I don't think increasing the voltage will help much or not at all.
But to answer your question.
The resistor at R10 is a 10.5K ohm resistor if you were to replace it with a 10.0k ohm resistor you would increase the voltage a few hundredths.
I suspect Avalon has already found that the 10.5K ohm resistor is the best value to use it sets the voltage at about 1.15 volts.

The only problem is everyone is too scared to fry their precious avalon chips.

Hey folks,

is there any way to give the chips more Volt? (I know there is much more needed then air cooling).

I get lots of HW errors with a frequency higher then 365 and I think they need a little bit more volts!.

The temperature of the chips is only at 45-50°C! (max is 70 in the chip spreadshet) so I could give him a bit more overclocking.
