Hmm.. ok guys just checked out my RAM.
MSI RD790 seems to set the wrong [various] drive strengths (higher signal strength>more stress>more power>more heat). My RAM is rated for lower [various] drive strengths than this board is setting -> this will overheat RAM and can possibly kill them too.

Booting 1066 mode, this is what it sets Vs. what it's supposed to set:

EVEREST Vs. SPDTool

As you can see, all drive strengths at 1066 EPP profile are rated for 1.00x but the board is setting them 1.25x-1.50x. So this means to get them back to the rated, they would need to be dropped. This is much more stress on the RAM and outside of it's power spec although it does usually help much with oc'ing RAM and getting RAM stable at oc's.

To get into a little more detail, each integrated circuit cell designed using V[HSIC]HDL creates large nets which contain specific cells (driving transistor gates) driving many other gates within. Each are designed with a Drive Strength referring to the number of adjacent gates they can drive (drive power) and a 1.00x DS refers to being able to drive two gates, 2.00x is the ability to drive four gates and so on.

BTW, some updated tools, they work good:

EVEREST Ultimate 4.20 Build 1297: http://www.lavalys.com/beta/everestu...dfg3mn0cxz.zip
CPU-Z 1.44.1: http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpuz_144.zip
HWMonitor 1.07: http://www.cpuid.com/download/HWMonitor_107.zip

CPU-Z now detects voltages well and EVEREST is benchmarking Phenom a little higher.
