Hi,

What's the lowest VCore that this board supports?

I'm building a dual purpose system and I might want to undervolt at times, so I'm wondering if the BIOS supports low voltages? i.e 1.1 to 1.3 range, which is usable in my expereince if I drop the FSB. My last Abit P4 board went down to 1.1V, but that was a couple of years ago. I had a 1.6A @ 1.15V which ran pretty cool at stock FSB.

Sounds a good board for the money to run a 2.8C @ 250 FSB hopefully.

Love

The IC7 I have won't go any lower than 1.525V. I wanted to undervolt my cpu too, but it won't let me. :(

That's not necessarily true. The BIOS reads the microcode for the CPU you have installed and lists appropriate vcore settings. For example, Prescotts have a lower default vcore, approx. 1.375v.
