    just keep vtt under 0.3v above vcc and you wont have a problem. once u increase potential across cpu landing pin input voltages u gradually begin to risk stressing the silicon as it tries to cope with constant differences between vcc and vtt which is used for input buffer threshold on low/high swings.

    For clarification, that 0.3v isn't a typo for 0.03v right? I've got vcore at 1.45v (Windows: 1.42v idle, 1.41v load) and VTT at 1.54.

    Be it 0.03v which I think is what he meant, or 0.3v, you are still too much over ur Vcore for the VTT voltage. For me, it didn't improve at all to raise it too much and even still I dunno if it help at 1.3v instead of 1.1v but I keep it there for the hell of it. My Vcore 1.38v maximum, 1.36v average on load, E8400 @ 4.32
