Cool! Why not get the E6750? Less than a hundred ringgit difference only ma.... Better OC also....

He's using the 10th anni.

Previously my crucial ballistix DDR2-800 can go 4-4-4-4 @ 950mhz @ 2.1v stable....

Rev 1.0. Yup, the vdroop is "normal" for our budget mobos...... I've heard that the P35-DQ6 doesn't have much vdroop at all.... of course, the price is also nice.....

For mine, vcore bios 1.425v, CPUz in windows 1.39v, and 1.36v load.....

Oh, just remember that software voltage readings are notoriously inaccurate....

If set 2.2v in Bios, will show as 2.2v in Easytune5. Try using Easytune5 to see the vdimm.

My rams was stable 4-4-4-4 (not 4-4-4-8!! ) @ 2.1v (not 2.2v ) @ 950mhz.....

Weird. I'm using Speedfan 4.32 and it is showing vdimm instead of vcore2. And it is showing correct vdimm settings too, which is 2.1v.

The same reading is on Easytune5. What does Easytune5 say about your vdimm?

Since I bought my mobo, I never upgraded the bios yet. Waiting for bios that supports penryn..... Now using F3...

Just came back from KL. I set mine to extreme.....

Dunno. Lazy to benchmark the difference. I don't think it is really noticeable in real-world applications.....

Push it higher!

I see. Yeah, different rams will have different OC capabilities, I guess...... what if you put it at 2.2v? How far can it go? Make sure you have active cooling.....

Mine is on red slot..... hmmmm.... never tried on the other slot.....

Edit : Wait a second. You are running your bus speed at 475mhz? My P35-DS3 can't go above 480mhz..... it will reboot straight away...... I'm not too sure whether it is due to the CPU or the mobo's FSB wall..... I've tried vMCH and vFSB up to +0.3v but still not successful....

8 months???!?!? Can't cancel meh?

Wished I could sell you my OCZ ram cooler..... it is slightly defective.... lazy to RMA to my seller as it is still usable....

Arrived already defective. But i fixed it myself..... Now using it without any problems.....

Eh? How come the yahoo messenger not working? I sent you some message a few times, dunno whether you receive it or not.....

We can discuss on yahoo messenger when we're both online....

Anyway, the readings on my mobo is accurate. If I set it to 1.8v in BIOS, then it will show as 1.8v and in windows, speedfan will show 1.8v under vdimm (dunno why yours show vcore2)....

Now, my settings is 2.1v in BIOS, and it is showing 2.1v in BIOS and speedfan (version 4.32)....

So you're running your 10th anni at 4-4-4 @ 444mhz @ 2.2v? Can go higher?

Even on easytune5?

What about your vcore? I set mine to 1.425v but showing as 1.41v under easytune5.....

?? How come?? See picture below....

Oh, I know what you mean..... I was thinking that it was indicating the vdimm as it will show the correct vdimm according to the BIOS setting..... e.g. if I set 2.0v in bios, then it will show as 2.0v in easytune5..... maybe it is just indicating the bios settings.....but maybe it is indicating the true vdimm too?

Anyway, why not try speedfan 4.32 and see any difference or not....

P/S: How come I see you online on Yahoo messenger but no reply?

Edit : Same thing with my vcore. Bios set to 1.425v but showing 1.41v in easytune5..

Errrr.... don't understand.....

For my bios, vdimm set to +0.3v......

You have any experience in running 4x1gb? Now itchy hands to try out 4x1gb as my ballistix is just lying around..... I wonder whether the OC would be lower although all my 4 sticks are almost the same in terms of overclockability....

When out to bios to check again.... hehe, all show "OK".....

Yours actually showing actual vdimm readings in BIOS? Hmmm... maybe I should update my bios, still using F3.... lazy....

Call them for wat?

Ok ok, will update my bios this weekend, if not too lazy....

Thinking of going 4x1gb too....

I see you're running the E6550 at 3.3Ghz @ 1.4v. Nice.

Why rams at 4-4-4-12? Can run 4-4-4-8 or maybe 4-4-4-4 ma......

Nice. Are you using stock CPU HSF? Why not increase the vcore? But then again, I'm also not running high vcore 24/7.....

Oh ya, some forumers did mentioned that "option 2" for the rams are better for crucial rams...... dunno whether this is true or not...
