in all reviews I see, they have alot more CPU voltages then I do.
in one review, they get 1.7375 volts max.
in another, they get up to 1.95.

me, all I got is 1.6375 max.
I tried 3 different bioses, but nothing, still 1.63 is my max.

why does my board get the voltage limits these reviews seem to get?

email sent.
hopefully they have a solution to me, as to why my board is so far off from what people in reviews get for Vcore.

the best response I got from Abit so far, was the voltage limit, is determined, by the CPU used in the board.

since my CPU default voltage is 1.2875, or exactly .1 volt less then a 800 FSB prescott, then my max voltage is exactly .1 volt less then a 800 fsb prescott.

the 3.4EE Northwood, would have even more voltage limits I think, which would explain the 1.95 volt limit another reviewer got.
