ASUS P5W DH - Problems + Fixes Thread

[MacClipper]

Whatever you read is wrong. The bios reads the VID of the cpu under load and uses 1.1625v idle. These are the EIST values. P5WDH Bios revision never changes stock vcore. The cpu itself determines this via the VID, which can be read in coretemp or everest. And by the way, lower VID is generally better.

... except when it comes to trying to o'c it higher cos this chip is confirmed stable at 3.2GHz at 1.30V on my Commando (lovely independent Vcore/EIST-C1E options).

Nonetheless thanks for the consolation, lawry.

3GHz is enough, 3GHz is enough, 3GHz is enough... my new chant. lol
