What are all these volting options? I know DDR2 volts, FSB and CPU vcore, but what are the others?

That page shows some of the BIOS options in that motherboard. Check it out, may answer some of your questions.

Did you hit Ctrl F1? That opens more options in the bios I think,I havent been in my bios in forever.

I'm asking what these other volting options do, not where they are

itslogz

All the overvoltage settings are to set at like [Example: (+.05v)] to which ever voltage your adjusting. Like if you overclocked your ram, you would add to the DRAM Overvoltage... Stuff like that.

Arkidas

Ok but what is MCH reference and ( G ) MCH volts?

itslogz

I'm not completely sure, My BIOS has CPU vcore, then has CPU voltage reference, then NB Voltage and NB voltage reference. Ive tryed using references with set volts on each, and seen no difference in my overclocking stability than with them set to auto, so you can probably just leave them on NORMAL and be completely fine for those things. Ive left my NB/SB/FSB all on auto and didnt even see a difference with overclocking than with them set.

Arkidas

Ok, there is no NB voltages for me so maybe that's MCH? Will raising them help oc'ing?

GMCH is gigabyte's NB but they split the PCI-E and FSB out. MCH reference is the percentages of volts you want to use when you increase fsb without actually increase vcore and GMCH volts.

Can you recommend me anything? I mean, can you recommend me how much to increase reference and GMCH? CPU vcore is at 1.5 and FSB is +0.35.
