Hello,
See sig for hardware info.
I'm currently at 2709 (9x301) and ORTHOS @ 20 min and going while I type this. So far, I'm very pleased, I just have a couple questions I would like clarified.
In the P-35 DS3 BIOS, I cannot find anywhere it tells me what the actual VCORE that is set is. In the M.I.T, it's set to NORMAL, and shows my VID of 1.2750. From what I understand, this just shows what's normal, not what it's running at. CPU-Z shows 1.184 and sometimes flashes to 2.00 extremely briefly. I think this is just a software thing, but I want to know. I still have EIST enabled, as I like my CPU clocking down when not in use to run cooler and save a couple $ on electricity.
My Temps in Core Temp .95 after 30min ORTHOS are as follows: 60, 51, 50, 55. AMB from my thermo is 26C, and probly a bit higher due it being in a different room then the PC. Idle is 42, 35, 33, 38.
I'm guessing that the difference between the cores is due to a) maybe a bad mount job, or b) bad IHS connectivity with the HSF. I know for a fact the u120x is not flat, and the CPU isn't either.
The VCORE is what I'm really concerned about. I just don't know where to start if I set it manually. I've set PCI-E and RAM all to manual. (RAM is 4-4-4-12 @ 2.0v
I'll post some screenies when I can. (ok, once I figure out how)
