The A64 memory controller is more intelligent than all of us - it will look at the capability of your actual memory and decide a suitable overall clock speed to memory divider whether it be /11 or 12 or whatever - the HTT and max memory clocks are only a reference for the decision made at POST by the A64 itself. You make your BIOS decision and live with the A64 decision itself. Remarkable to say the least. To Candymancan - yes voltage will increase along side temps at 1.7 and thus 1.8 under load - that's the spec not the board - for more RPM from cooler suggest upgrading the cooler itself as the board will only ever supply c. .38A of current along 12V all day long as called for my the ATX spec for Fan headers.

Well im ganna order a DD TDX waterblock so i can hook my water cooling system back up that was on my 2500+ system, iv been watercooling for 3 years now and going to heatsinks sucks to me. Would hooking the cpu fan up to the molex extensions make the fan spin faster? You know the Molex pluggs that have the adapters for fans. Cuss i have one right here. I'll give it try but i dunno how fast the fan will be spinning cuss it isnt ganna plugged into the motherboard. So the voltage go up and up on load when the temps get higher and higher? Thats stupide because the that will only make the temps get even higher. I really need my waterblock cuss the temps on this thing get to 56c-60c depending on how far i overclock.

Not a temp thing, a load thing. Typically, the CPU only needs maximum voltage to be stable when you are pushing it hard. As an example, my CPU needs 2.1v to be stable at 2654 MHz when fully loaded (running Folding@home, for example). However, if all I'm doing is sitting idle at the desktop, it is stable at 1.9v. So the logical question becomes, why not only run the system at high voltages when it is under heavy load? This is exactly what AMD has done with CNQ (and Intel with their equivalent). You increase the voltage to make the system able to run stably under heavy loads, and you decrease the voltage under light loads to reduce the heat output. That way, you get the best of both worlds; a system that runs cool, but still has plenty of oomf when you need it. |

Yea ok but what if 1.6v is stable under load @ say 2500mhz, but the thing keeps raising the voltage for no reason. To me thats a bunch of crap. Even whe ni bring the cpu down to 8x200 which is 1600mhz it still wants to raise the vcore from 1.55 to 1.65

As we have stated there is a reason for this - it is within the specification of the PWM and the processor.
