I'm putting together a system using the Asus M4A785TD-V EVO mobo and it has a jumper that I can't find any mention of in the manual. It is labeled "OV_CPU" and it's in the area near the keyboard/mouse connector block. What is this jumper for?

Thanks,
BGC

There is also an interesting little jumper right near the CPU power connector labeled “OV_CPU”. Moving it away from its default position allows a CPU voltage selection up to 1.9V. Without moving the jumper, the previous limit was 1.7V. ASUS doesn’t document what this jumper does anywhere in the manual, but with a name like OV_CPU, we couldn’t help but try it out for ourselves.

I appreciate the link. FYI, I did google, but searched for 0v (Zero), not Ov. That's what it looks like on the mobo. The case seems to have affected the results I got as well.

Thanks,
