I hafta gree with that...i have tried a number of ASUS boards from 965p to 975...both have serious vdroop at high OC

So far, the P35 is the best....very very low vdroop or can consider as no vdroop at all.

mmm...some clarification required...i tot i understand about vdroop but...
taking example given by kmarc:
V(bios) = 1.45v
V(idle)  = 1.41v
V(load)  = 1.38v

so, which one is considered as vdroop? when the proc at load or between bios setting and V(idle) or between all?

Dun use MB probe to check....it's best you use a DMM to measure. You take the readings on load and idle. Minus them you will get the vdroop value.

haha...for those who don have the DMM, then the apps will be the only choice la...
anyway...i just wanna have some clarification (either via apps or DMM), the vdroop is measured between the idle and load, isnt it?
but what about the different between bios setup and windows loaded reading...will that be considered as vdroop as well or not.
just to get things clear about this thing...thanks notworthy.gif

Like you said...no DMM, then just use the apps. But it's sometimes inaccurate. Some mobo undervolts and some mobo overvolts. And sometimes the apps give inaccurate reading too. So it's always advisable to use a DMM to meassure especially if you wanna do a vdroop mod.
