When overclocking : If the CPU VID is NOT raised beyond stock but other settings are (FSB,Ram divider,multiplier) - do those other settings raise the temperature of CPU core?Or will temps (idle/load) stay the same as when stock - because of the SAME STOCK CPU VID?

VID? I don't know that term.... The CPU Voltage? Keeping it at stock voltage will most likely cause the computer to blue screen or just fail to boot, when overclocking. But yeah, in general increasing FBS and such will still increase the temperature of the CPU at it's stock voltage, just not as much because you are run into a wall. The PC becomes unstable without a voltage increase; so you end up not pushing the CPU as hard, because it's already crashing at the lower voltage.... So, the CPU will show cooler temperatures at a stock voltage then a higher voltage... but that higher voltage will let you overclock futher compounding the heat issue of the CPU to more extremes. It's more of a barrier issue, in other words. Also, memory hates to be overclocked, that's why you have to mess with the dividers for them when overclocking to higher FBS numbers. HT link on AMD CPU's also need to be lowered... from it 5x default setting, to 4x or 3x. The PC usually just fails to boot, if you leave it at 5x,, where you usually can't go any higher than 12mhz extra, on the bus. I don't know anything about Intel... last intel I ever owned was a Pentium 200MMX back in the mid 90's.

Even if you keep the voltage same, it WILL increase the temperature of the CPU if you raise the clocks. Also, just fyi, VID means the voltage ID that comes with each CPU, as specified by the manufacturer (it is the CPU's stock voltage).
