Well just to put things into perpective, those system monitoring chips are pretty off target. I've measured a few boards with a DMM and most of the system health readings are off target by a fair bit. So you don't know how accurate is the reading anyway.

but i did use biostar before, when the 939 era..and i can say that the measurements are exactly same with the one that i set in the bios..
so what happen with tforce am2 mobo nowadays? sad.gif

Well, Tforce AM2 boards still overclock well, but there are some quirks, like those mentioned above.

About voltages, most of the time I find that the last digit (last 2 digits for vCore) of motherboard sensors not accurate. Guess you're just lucky then, your board reports accurately. Also depends on what software you use, some have been calibarated to give better readings.

well then i think its better if i juz let it be..
as long as i know how much voltage did i put, then its fine.. wink.gif

finally im using both my corsair and crucial together and run it DDR900 5-4-4-5.. rclxms.gif

still not priming yet, but converting video (avi ->dvd) and playing RTS games (build tons of army until the game looks lagging), no problem such as BSOD so far..

need oppinion about this rig

nice spec, but i dun think u need those dominator.. smile.gif
and am2 x2 6000, do u really need that high ? perhaps 4200 - 5000 will do..

for ram, there are so many value and dual channel high performance kit ram that comes with micron chipset and more cheaper than dominator..

check out the trade zone, crucial ballistik is very cheap currently..
comes with micron chipset and CL3.. thumbup.gif

some minor update

user posted image

the system cannot pass 2.6GHz with both ram.. sweat.gif
last time i tried with only one brand, i managed to get to 2.7GHz..
well, i guess thats it..2.5GHz with DDR1000 is already fine with me.. smile.gif

PS - i mistakenly showed the slot 1 and 2 twice..it should be slot 3 and 4, which are the slot for corsair's..uhm..nevermind i guess cool.gif

Nice ram you have there? Is it D9?
But a bit too high vcore for your processor IMO smile.gif

yupz..its D9GMH smile.gif
i guess 2.7ghz is the limit, my processor cannot go further.. sad.gif
