"cpu voltage out of range" p4b533

[jmeyer2718]

Hi,

Im in the process of overclocking my 1.6a. I had the voltage set to 1.675 and the woman-bios-thing said "CPU Voltage out of range", so I put it back down to 1.65 which had previously not given me that error. This time it did. I then turned off the computer completely, restarted, went back into the bios, and set it to 1.675 again and didnt get the error. Should this be something to be concerned about?

Thanks for any help you guys can provide!

I have the same mobo and I wouldn't worry about it.Probably some kind of bug.I would recommend shutting off the bios speech feature,I did. The Asus mobo's overvolt .06-.07 so if you set the voltage to 1.65 at "idle" it will read around 1.71 volts.Under load it will be close to 1.65.

she is trying to tell you something ~ leave it on 1.65v 😉

The warning kicks in when cpu voltage goes over 1.7 volts. Voltage will jump around so at 1.675 it will jump over 1.7 volts every few seconds and that will trip the alert. Tell it not to monitor the cpu voltage in hardware monitor and it will shut up.

Heh I like that. Why is it that most guys call their computer she?

My p4s533 barks out "cpu not installed" when trying to use a cheapo power supply with low 12 volt rail, and you can't disable the message in the bios. I sent that one back to the vender.

Well - yeah. It would.

That's why you're supposed to have decent PSU's with a decent 12V rail 🙂.

You mean you were surprised? Cheap components only get you so far 🙂.
