Aigo, I've finally gotten around to checking the voltage readings. I'm seeing points but I'm not sure where to ground the wire (black terminal)


EDIT: I guess in my stupid question i was looking for where to stick the + wire because those don't look like terminals to take readings.. :hmm:

Well. 2 things. Is that the correct terminal to make contact with the Red wire from the multi meter? It doesn't seem so and I want to be sure before I short something out. And what type of multi meter is best? I bought 2 from Home Depot. An Analog and a Digital. Just some cheap 25$ ones.. (vs 100$)

vDIMM reads 1.615v while being set to 1.58v in bios. The VTT reads 1.253v while being set to auto (which i would assume is 1.200v.) The vcore is dead on.
