Impressive, VCore Droop control @ disabled and take a look and also all fans are @ LOW like I'm using them most of the time!

Hey Dede,

Just for clarification what exactly did the Vcore Drop=Disabled helped you achieve?

[Dede99]

I'll better show you
this is after I disable the VCore Droop Control


and this is enabled

hope this helps

Wow, that's mega... Vcore drop control should always be off :-)

Thanks for sharing this.

Just depend on the configuration. There's more to that setting then appears to the casual user. You'll notice quite a few of my posts with BIOS settings have vdroop enabled.

VCore Droop Control: Set this function to DISABLED for overclocking; counter-intuitively, the ENABLED setting causes the CPU core voltage to sag when the CPU is placed under load.

counterintuitive, indeed.... maybe it should be better named 'vcore droop allow' than 'control' , by some miracle of engineering they have made the board inherently droop-proof ,and they have to artificially re-introduce the vdroop just to be safe, perhaps...

Dunno, Intel spec ask for this vdroop on thier chip, it is probably a safety measure, don't know the tech side of it, better safe then sorry, keep it enabled.


well, more fun, Vista64, Aero enabled 3870's 860/1200, no tweaks, 68 background process. LOL!
