Converting volts from 680i to asus p5n32-e

I have been doing a lot of research on this and other boards to find resources that would help me overclock my new Asus p5n32-E motherboard. Unfortunately most of the overclocking guides or posts discuss the voltage of the 680i reference board and there are very little posts overall about the Asus board. Asus has its own names for some of the voltage settings so I wanted to find out what the various volts translated to.

So far what I have found is the following:

Asus vCore = nVidia CPU Core
Asus Memory Voltage = nVidia Memory
Asus NB = nVidia nForce SPP
Asus SB = nVidia nForce MCP

Now the ones I am not sure about

Asus 1.2 HT = nVidia CPU FSB ? From what I can tell from the default nVidia 680i default setting for the CPU FSB is that the voltage is 1.2 so I assume these are the same.

Asus CPU VTT = nVidia HT nForce SPP <--> MCP ? Really this is just a guess I couldnt find much information on it.

Am I right with my guesses or way off? Any help would be appreciated!

ima gonna guess that HT stands for hyper transport. :)

edit: and yes here it is:

The CPU FSB voltage sets the voltage for the HyperTransport link connecting the CPU and Northbridge chipset, with a maximum voltage of 1.5V allowed

all that to confirm you are correct :) :)

edit 2: "The HyperTransport link between the Northbridge and Southbridge is powered through the HT nForce SPP <-> nForce MCP setting, with a maximum of 1.55V allowed
"

from evga 680i manual
"HT nForce SPP<. --. >MCP. This function defines the voltage level for the HyperTransport interface

in the evga manual it says cpu fsb I/O (CPU Vtt)
