Just that :haha:

So no room for OCing then (if they need more juice)

Not sure on that. Haven't got an i7 so couldn't say but that was a major downside on i7. I'm assuming that most users get the highest specced ram at that voltage and leave it at that. All you i7'ers chime in at any time with your thoughts on this too

Hmm yes there is. A few members of eXtremeSystems have been running it at 2.0v or higher, you just need to make sure your vDIMM<=1.5*VTT. It does bear a risk of course, and the 1.5*VTT hasn't been confirmed by Intel.

Lookin like the HAFMeister may have a radar lock on this.

eek, no, not quite

people are saying to keep the potential difference between qpi/vtt and vdimm, no more than 0.5v

ie. qpi vtt @ 1.35V = no more than 1.85V vdimm

with the same qpi vtt voltage of 1.35V, your formula would allow up to 2.025V for vdimm.

i've been keeping my voltages fairly low for now, or at least until there's more info

This is like watching porn, cause those rams are orgasmic.

Yes I know I've heard that theory too. However:



So in any case anyone sensible would be limited to 2.05v. But Xtremesystems, being extreme, have created a topic about tDimm/VTT. Lots of dead boards there, but good research on how far you can go while benching.
