I am trying to take down my Vcore to 1.5, which is listed as an option in the manual. My BIOS is the latest, well updated a couple of weeks back, and I have made sure the Overvolt jumper is set to disabled (the joker that supplied my machine had moved it!).
Manual does not list an option to remove the jumpe, so not tried that. According to manual should be 1.7 to 2.05 with overvolt enabled and 1.5 to 1.85 without. Whatever I do seems like 1.65 is the minimum on offer - I know I can underclock without voltage change by altering FSB (have even done that to try to drop voltage!) but this is not what I was trying.
Also even when I massively underclocked to 1.55 GHZ the temp from my CPU under load was not altered! What gives here? My guess is the thermistor had a botom end cannot go below? Anyway now slightly OCed and getting 60o C as opposed to the 55oC so it DOES register upward moves (which I guess is the point).
Input welcome - may look for an ASUS forum.... if nothing comes here....
