Hence why up to 1.5v of vCore, it's fine, but excessive VTT might not be fine. Anandtech was running at 1.45v, a whooping .35v increase from 1.1v. Assuming the chip's default VID to be at 1.2v (you know this is not true, it's usually 1.25v - 1.30v), then it's as good as running at 1.55v vCore (assuming they have a good chip). Now tell me how that is not lethal.

I think I had



VTT is FSB voltage. Its lowest value is 1.20v on most boards. When a 45nm processor is detected, decrease that by .10v. But... just to be on the safe side, never go beyond 1.40v with that voltage even in the BIOS.



Yeap, this has been a good batch so far. And who was it that asked for a 24-hour small FFT prime screenshot?

That is what I had her set to 24/7 temps at 62 Celcius max at full load. I think it was like 35 Celcius max at idle.
