not likely. more likely is you need more vcore to get it stable. mine takes 1.48 to be stable at 8x438.

I agree. It wasn't stable. Lowered to FSB420. *cry*

why are you trying to keep vcore so low? 1.45 - 1.5 is fine as long as you have adequate cooling.

I agree. I needed 1.45v for 3.6OC. go for it. It'll be fine.

Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R, Tuniq Tower 120 and cramped Antec P182b.
Guess Ill try the 1.45V (BIOS).
VCore 1.45V testing
GCH +0.1
DDR +0.4 (2.2V)
FSB450 = Crashed before I got Prime running.
FSB440 = Crashed after few minutes of running Prime.
FSB430 - running Prime right now. Temps peaked at 71C'.
Lousy E6750 or is there something else I could try?
Possibly up FSB by +0.1V?

I was suggested the 1.45V so I tried it. And posted results.
But Im definetly not overvolting RAM. GA-P35C-DS3R manual says 1.8V is the stock voltage for DIMM. Crucial Ballistix are specced for 2.2V (4-4-4-12 @ 800MHz and 5-5-5-15 @ 1000MHz). Ill add my spec from work.

That board DOES overvolt the ram. The manual is wrong. You should only be using +.3v to get 2.24v. Check out that thread. There is a discussion in the last 30 posts or so.

Well, i guess every system is different
BTW, when you had it at +.3v did you also have +.1v on the (G)mch?
If not, I bet that's the difference. That's the way I have mine set. if you don't try it and see if it works.

Lorian, nice one!
mrfatboy, aye - well actually the memory works in flex mode. 2GB works in Dual Channel and the last 1GB is single channel. At least manual says that you can use different sizes of RAM sticks and still get dual channel to work (like 1GB and 512MB), so I presume that's the thing here...
