NF7-s undervolting

[OpTiX]

i heard there was a mod to fix this, any idea?

 

[Shimmishim]

what is undervolting?

vdd? vtt? vdimm? vcore?

 

[OpTiX]

all three

 

[Shimmishim]

really?

hmm...

i know the vdimm is a lil lower than what you set it in bios but you can also vmod your board if you want more...

unfortunately i do not know of any droop mods to prevent undervolting....

 

[Noid]

so what ...

Unless your using the last highest voltage value ... whats the point in a mod to get more voltage...?

What you do need to watch for is voltage flux.

The only NF7-S version that would NEED a voltage mod was a v1.0 series mb.
(and that was only to stablize 3D over 200 fsb ... like mine)

Oh ,, I forgot ... did you take a MM readings from the mb ...?
(I think you find that the voltages are OK,,, it's just the software proggies that can't determine the correct values)

 

[OpTiX]

it move up and down while under stress, havent tried a MM yet.

Then it 's most likely a bad PSU.

 

[OpTiX]

crap what the chances of getting a bad enermax psu?

 

[OpTiX]

my +12 volt line drops to 11.73 my vcore drops to 1.79 from 1.86 and my mem volts go from 2.9 to 2.8 and so on, this is @ load but when idle everything is fine, its preventing me from playing games.

Your voltages are not the problem ...

For Example ... my readings with HD 2.70

. . . . . Idle: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Load:

Vc ---- 1.84 ~ 1.92 ................... 1.81 ~ 1.84
12+ - 11.50 ~ 11.74 ................ 11.50 ~ 11.68


I'd re-test your memory first with ..... memtest86+ 1.40

Once you memory passes 10 loops with cache ON for ALL tests,,, then

Use P95 to test your CPU


My rig is P95 stable... and .. runs 3dMark at the SAME TIME
(along with hardware monitors and other crap)

Enermax PSU arent the best anymore ... I use a Antec True 430
(My Enermax 365 caught on fire)
