Can you choose vCPU-NB manually with a K8 Rammsteiner?

If you see it in the BIOS when X2 is installed then it will be a setting for it. Only options you see changeable when you install a CPU are those that support it. From my memory, it wasn't there with a X2 BE-2350 on the ASUS or the DFI 790Fx.
I can select it yes. I looked on the Sapphire site on the BIOS settings pdf as well and it doesnt have the 'Phenom only' note with it either.

I didnt change the actual voltage, only the Special Add up to 10% as Ive no clue what the default Voltage should be like and, maybe sounds strange, I dont feel like burning the IMC down. I didnt find a stability increase with adding 10% though for CPU OC. Didnt test it for memory yet because I was thinking the actual CPU-NBVID might be decreased if you dont set the actualy Voltage manually while you add a Voltage increase?

There's nowhere a default Voltage to be found for it shamefully, neither in the BIOS setup pdf for AMD X2 CPU's. Though it does clearly show the X2 Architecture has a so called Northbridge but no info about it apart it has the memory controller and HT links in it.
