    Fritz,

    no matter what I do, the termination voltages won't show right in ET6. Set them manually in your BIOS and dismiss them...mine are at 0.84 and the RAM voltage at 1.68. Tho the readings being a bit below what you're setting there. 1.66 gives me 1.63 or so...

    Oh one thing I noticed too, after setting the six values in the BIOS to 0.84 (50% of the RAM voltage) they seem to snap to the RAM voltage and adjust automatically when changing it up and down

    Those 0.75V come from the JEDEC that's setting the standards for memory types. Normal DDR3 voltages would be 1.5V usually. And the references are 50% of that. Other boards like the ASUS P6T series uses percentages as settings, which is IMHO more elegant to work with. Gigabyte gives you the bland display of voltages instead. It has been a bit of a hassle in the past with socket 775 systems, their GTL bus used reference lines like DDR2/3 RAM. Gigabyte had voltages, ASUS used percentages just like Intel's spec papers did.
