EasyTune and GA-P35C-DS3R

Hello

Did you overclock the CPU or other components? Please load optimized default and re-check it.
The memory voltage that we tested with DDR2 800 was shown as 1.920V.

If you want to run this RAM at 4-4-4-12 then try adding around 0.1 V or 0.2 V.  Always check hardware monitoring results in bios setup of your RAM voltage before you proceed to any longer work, to keep it not higher than OCZ recommends.

Hi Andrew,
nothing was overclocked

On the MIT page in BIOS,
I set F7: Optimized defaults
It set System Voltage Control to Manual
I set DDR2/DDR3 OverVoltage Control to +0.1V, rather than [Normal]

Result: PC Health Status still shows DDR2/DDR3 Voltage = 1.984V

It stayed like that even though I loaded Fail-Safe defaults and/or Optimized Defaults on that page and on MIT page

So I must be doing something wrong or the PC Health Status is not actually showing the correct voltage ?

Regards,
Neil

Hi Neil

we did the test with P35C-DS3R and different DDR2 modules. The voltage noticed when using DDR2-800 was 1.937V or 1.924V. If we used DDR2-1066, it was shown as 1.984V. Please tell me what CPU you used. What is the DDR2 voltage on easy tune? Please take a screenshot of CPUz and show to me. And what is reversion of your P35C-DS3R?

Pls notice that we are talking about only 3 or 4 % difference in reading.

Hi Andrew,
motherboard is a Rev 1.1, BIOS F12e

CPU is an Intel Core2 Duo E6300

CPU-z screens attached. Note mult is shown as 6 rather than 7 as it is lightly loaded.

Regards,
Neil

Hi neilgl

we checked another mobo Rev.1.1, CPU 6300, bios F12e and it showed DDR voltage = 1.936 V, see attached picture. Anyway, as i already mentioned, the difference is too small to discuss it further imho.
