    3.3 volts DDR on IC7 Max 3 ?

    Anyone have experience with these voltages. I have heard of instabilities on the Max3 between 2.8 and 3.2 volts.
    Input would be appreciated.

    OCZ 3200 Rev.2

    if you do not have the VTT mod, you must make , but also with the ocz, you do not resolve without VTT

    the VTT is indispensable also with the ocz boost VTT is a 1/2 of Vdimm
    open your bios on HWMonitor features, and read the value of your VTT at 3.3 volt , whit a mod you setting the VTT at 1.650 volt ( Vdimm 3.3 volt)

    try this bios

    Can i expect any OC improvements? probably none on 1:1, but 5:4 should be better right ?

    Hey Acesea

    Just sent my 2 other max 3's back to abit (australia) for RMA for the vtt / vdimm mods. Maybe abit in your part of the planet will do the same.
