Schneider: Very nice OC, sounds like you have a sweet 9850 there! But your giving the DS5 somewhat of a bad name on the IMC volts..

As I tried to tell you in the DQ6 thread AUTO setting will equal 1.138v's. Once you go to the negative volts it subtracts it from whatever the base NB setting is, IE: 1.25v for 9600BE or 1.30v for 9850BE.

Here is a SS of my 9850 on the DS5 with "Memory Controller Volt" set at -0.0500, the resulting IMC voltage is 1.25 (1.3std, -.0500):



If your machine won't boot at -0.0125, try -0.1000, which would put you at 1.20v/NB on a 9850, but please quit saying that the DS5 is limited to 1.138 NB, because it certainly isn't.
