I have an Asus k55a-si50301p with an i5-3230M Processor, SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 250GB SATA III (MZ-75E250B/AM), CORSAIR Vengeance Performance 16GB (2 x 8G) 204-Pin (CMSX16GX3M2B1600C9) CAS latency stock 9-9-9-24 running at 1.35V. Intel 7260 802.11ac/Bluetooth 2.4/5Ghz wireless card soon to come.
Overall I am very impressed with my systems performance. It was pretty good stock but with the SSD and memory Upgrades I got a huge performance boost I see on Corsair's website and a few others that my memory supposedly supports 1.5v operation. I want to know how/is it safe to set the memory to 1.5v, do I have to change any timing or CAS latency settings or will that happen automatically? Also I have the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility but for some reason it doesent have a section for graphics to boost, only able to change the voltage of the turbo boost and I'm not comfortable messing with that as during gaming (Elder Scrolls Online, but most newer games) I run 95C to 105C Max TDP. I have everything I could find on the PC upgraded to high performance, SSD RAPID mode enabled, all services but microsoft and a few other selects are disabled. Any advice is appreciated, I'm mainly concerned with trying to do the last real upgrade in turning the memory to 1.5v and seeing what kind of gains I get out of that. Thanks!
