Cool ,, ive always been a little confused about voltages and Vdrop. So intel's recommended max is 1.36v if i make sure that my load vcore in cpuz never exceeds that i should be good?
Apparently My original problem was related to Asus's Load-Line Calibration feature. It is sepposed to reduce vdrop and allow you to lower your voltages, but it was causing me nothing but problems..
It was actually giving me a higher vcore at load then idle?? it was bumping up the voltages as i upped the fsb??. Also it was giving me odd stability problems. I could run games and cpu intensive apps all day ,, but when exiting the programs it would crash almost every time?
After disabeling this feature my system is running much more stable ... albeit with more voltage
Ive gotta pump 1.36v into my cpu to get it stable at 3.6ghz booo ,, i guess my chip issn't from a good batch
