Hi, with which Vdimm do you boot up everyday, I worry a bit about giving my ram 3,2v all day :bsod:

On my XP/Barton rigs, I ran at 3.2v-3.25v for over a year on a few of them without any negative side affects.

Now on my A64, I'm running 3.2v 24/7 full-load and I haven't had anything bad happen... yet. :rolleyes:

I've been running 3.3v for about 2 months now...I've had one of the two sticks I've been running since my KR7A days...and always have been shoving shoving as many volts down it as I can...no probs yet.

I ran 3.3v a whole year with my Infineon PC2700 USA @490MHz. no problems, get little warm but with Heatspreader and good airflow it would be no problem.

Sounds good, so 3,3v shoould be no prob either, when there's some airflow

It depends what kind of memory you are using.
Infineon @3.3V gets real hot!

My new HyperX PC3200 BH-5 @3.3v 250MHz, no sweat not warm. :)

I been running 3.1v. Hope it's ok.

I hardly ever RMA anything so I yoinked the spreaders. They are coats especially the way they are put on. Thick tape that that hardly has good contact.

I now feel better about pumping 3.2v, through my Mushkin, 24/7:p:
