hey guys.... i tried looking for this in the faq and searching to no avail....so i figure someone could answer this...
seems like my mobo (pcb 2.0) is giving more juice to my cpu than the setting from my readings in teh bios and the most recent mbm5 (3300 or soemthing)
for example... bios setting of 1.850 gave me 1.92 actual
setting 1.8 gave me 1.87 actual
is this a known thing? i wouldnt necessarily call it a problem since its nice to get over 1.9 without any hard mods..... i dont really care but i was running at 1.92 without me knowning with moderate air cooling (slk-6 with 80mm fan diagonal) for 2 days until i finally updated my mbm5 to get the correct readings off the board
i also notice that my rails are reading higher than they did (in a good way) from my old via kt266a board (shuttle ak31v3) by about .04 on the 5v... a bit more on the 3.3 but i guess this just means that the asus pcb design is more efficient? or just that the board for some reason reads differently?
thanks for any help in advance
edit: fixed some typos.. anyone know where i can get brackets for my mobo? i bought a newegg refurb and it was a bare board...
