Its the only way I can explain being able to run the RAM at 1100MHz with no voltage increase when it used to artifact at 960~980 or so at idle.

There was a difference from 900 ~ 950 on the stock BIOS & I have seen what I think is a small increase on the TOP BIOS going from 950 ~ 1059 but to be honest its within the margin of error so I cant really claim it.
