Hello, I recently asked a question like this before, and amazingly, I'm still in doubt.
I got a Asus Mobo and a i7-930.
I heard that your QPI/DRAM Core Voltage should stay 0.5v over/under the DRAM Voltage, or the CPU or something will get permanently damaged.
So I did some searching and found a few people with volts like:
Asus Mobo - i7-930
CPU Voltage [1.375v]
QPI/DRAM Core Voltage [1.31875v]
DRAM Bus Voltage [1.643v]
Which would mean that he only got a gap of 0.32v which would "PERMA DAMAGE" his hardware.
I am running 1.64 DRAM Voltage, while having my QPI/DRAM Core Voltage set to minimum: 1.20v, giving me a gap of 0.44v.
I don't understand this, but I have read it various places, that the gap MUST be 0.5v or consequences will happen.
Can someone enlighten me on this?
