I've just set up my system recently. Its a bit unstable. I switched my A7V off of jumperless. I am unsure of the best vcore setting to run with. Right now I have it at 1.75V, and my temps are around 45 celcius. If any of you could recommend a setting I would much appreciate it!!!!!!!!!

If it's unstable at default speed, you have other issues. Be looking at drivers, cooling, ram, possibly Power Supply, etc.

Since you have to start somewhere, why not back off you ram timing to conservative settings (8/10ns) and see if you can get the system stable. If you get it stable, increase the timings SLOWLY until the instability returns.

Other issues are hsf, and case cooling. Power supply and drivers.
