Re: Gigabyte X38/P35/P965 (DS* DQ* S3) Overclocking and General BIOS tweaking Guide
Ahh this thread is here to help, no hijacking will ever be thought of. I posted it to help people, and anyone can post a question here or make thier own thread, whichever they feel is better
CoreTemp give you the default VID not the Vcore, that is different
VID is what intel has tested the chip to be stable at stock setting
Deafult Vcore is where Intel has set the Vcore Voltage to run at despite what they tested the VID to be
Vdroop is what your BOARD does to the voltages between idle and load
Vdrop is what your BOARD does to the voltages between what you set in the BIOS and what is used at post when in windows and at idle
Vtt voltage and Vcore voltage is what you need to watch with 45nm, as for Vtt voltage that is the termination point between the CPU and the MCH. Which most Gigabyte boards do not let you control. So I dont know if that is good or bad.
As for Vcore voltage just keep in mind as you have been reading, yes 1.45 or 1.5 as most said was still safe with 65nm is no longer safe area with 45nm. Most I have seen in testing are saying 1.4 is getting to be the max safe area with 45, and most trying to stay under that on air
