The voltage differential between the DRAM Bus voltage and the QPI/VTT (or Uncore depending on the BIOS) voltage needs to be <= 0.5V. Default QPI/VTT voltage is 1.15 - 1.2V, w/ default DRAM voltage normally at between 1.64 - 1.66V. The absolute maximum DRAM voltage as spec'd by Intel for the i7 920 is 1.875V, which means no more than 1.35 - 1.375 QPI/VTT voltage. Although you'll see plenty of folks running considerably higher than 1.35V Uncore, like upwards of 1.5 or more for higher BCLKs and DRAM frequency of > 2000MHz.
