Abit NF7 v2 question - undervolt on VCore?

[Lonyo]

I have an NF7 v2, and it undervolts by ~0.35v from the BIO setting, anyone else get undervolts like this?
I know it's nor a problem, I just wondered if it was "normal"?
The max voltage is plenty high enough even with this undervolting, so it's not a huge issue.


Also, what limits have people found with mobile XP's (2500+ Barton), in terms of overclocking voltages?
I have mine up to ~2300MHz at 1.6v BIOS, 1.568 actual. Putting it up to 1.625 BIOS didn't seem to help even going a little higher (2380).
I know it's a good overclock anyway, but what sort of voltages do 2500+'s top out at? I don't want to up the voltage to 1.65 actual (1.675 BIOS) if it's not going to net me any more speed.

Yeah, its normal

As far as where do mobile top out (more voltage=no extra FSB), I dunno. I think, like most things with OCing, each chip varies somewhat. Seems to me there was thread recently where everyone posted their OC results iwth the mobiles. If you can find that you'll get a good idea of what others are finding. I haven't tried pushing mine yet (waiting on cool weather).

EDIT: BTW, I've seen some NF7s that as you increase the vcore, the delta between BIOS and actual will increase.

I just founded it and posted in it Thanks.

about voltage, i run mine at a vcore of 2.0 when i feel like it. that gets me up to 2.6 (13*200), so high voltage can really help. also realize that you are not overvolting at all until you go above the 1.65v that the barton core does stock
