3.2 wont harm your ch5 dont worry

3.2~3.3 is safe and wont kill your memory.. I have two fans on my ch5 chips and tested with 3.55v.. :D (just for benching)

I've been running my ch-5 at 3.2volts for 2 weeks now with no problems.

I run my CH-5 3.3v 24/7 no problems.

But I heard CH5 dun like voltage all the much, and seem to die easier at high voltage. If you do use high voltage on them, I would suggest some active cooling.

They do get a bit warm with 3.2volts.

try 3.0v first and go from there =)

i tried 3.2v and i got 240mhz with 2-3-2-6 timmings. the ram does get a little warm.

I tried 3.5 and got 242mhz with 2-2-2-11 :thumbsup:
The board is holding me back (epox 8rda+ 1.1)

been running mine @ 3.3 for weeks, this ram loves voltage
but i wouldnt run high volts without cooling
i use a very slow 80mm-fan (less 1000rpm) thats sufficient
