You'll see it in CoreTemp. It is the voltage that your chip requires to run stable at stock settings. It is different for every chip. Mine is 1.225 which is quite high for a 45 nm chip. If I was using your voltage settings my temps would be high as well. If you're looking for the highest possible 24/7 fsb for that chip get another board. Between the HUGE increments in core voltage and the lack of any real settings for the GTLs it,s going to be tough to stabilize that chip. Also vour voltages are high as hell. A 1.7ish vtt is not good for your chip. You also shouldnt need a 1.5ish vcore for those clocks, unless you have a poor performing 45nm chip that eats voltage like mine. My P5Q Deluxe requires lower voltages for the same clocks on the same exact hardware as this board. I also get better performance at those same clocks. This might be a good board for benching, I dont know, but if you are looking for a 24/7 rig that performs well just save youself the agravation and ditch this board.Originally Posted by intelslacker
