In reference to +100mv, some say it reduces vdroop, thus making overclocks more stable. I have yet to see solid proof, but some people have "said" it works.
Otherwise, yes, it just adds 0.1v

It's running 3375MHz orthos stable now. I should have my new NB heatsink today, and then I'm going to reseat the 9700 aswell, I think I put way too much paste under it when I first mounted. It reaches 60degrees celcius when I'm stressing it with orhtos (gromacs core), so after a reseat I'll try to get it stable at 3.6GHz without going over 60degrees.

Farmerjoe, I used the AS5 instructions for dual cores from their site. Don't do the line thing. I had way too much paste on there using their method. I tried to make the line as thin as possible and it was way too much.

After reseating with the little half a grain of rice in middle one, my temps came down a lot. O_o Can't remember by how much. But I remember, it also loaded at 60, but afterwards was in the low 50s.

SB = very very very very warm.
vRAM mosfet = It's warm-ish. Not much more above room temp. (Wasn't before.)
vCore mosfet = Warm.
+100mv mosfet = Room temp. I did it just because I had extra ram sinks.

Well I'm not even using AS5 now(shame on me :P), I'm using the zalman STG-1 that came with my 9700. Maybe I'll order a fancontroller bay + some AS5 today or tomorrow. I don't know what the zalman grease is made of, but do you think it's much worse than AS5 or the coollaboratory liquid pro (anyone tried that btw?)

Why the 0404 BIOS? Does anything below it have severe problems?
