***Asus Rampage III Extreme Owners Thread***

I can't think of a reason why lower voltage would cause degradation.

Intel spec says PLL should be 1.65V-1.89V. Just curious if I might be causing any damage running it lower

For the boards that allowed it, on the i7 920/930 a lot of people were running lower voltages on the PLL and achieving better overclocks. As long as it's stable, you should be fine.

Yep. I keep mine around 1.45-1.5V.

It was at 1.5V for my 5.59GHz W3520 submission and the 5.4GHz Pi runs.
