DDR Voltage

If your memory is set to auto in your motherboard's bios, is there a way of knowing what the voltage is set at? Does it just default it to the lowest setting if not is there a program that will let me see the ddr voltage?

Cheers,

Maybe try A64 Tweaker to see current memory volts.

Its normally set to 2.6v at Auto. Speedfan tells you the actual voltage.

Thanks for the info I'll check when I get home from work.

I'm guessing that if I've tweaked my ram timings to spec instead of slower auto timings, the auto DDR Voltage may increase to compensate??

When I was running Wolfenstein:ET with auto timings & auto ddr voltage or 2.6 the game worked ok, but with tweaked timings if I used 2.6 2.65 the game would crash or reboot the system, at 2.70 everything runs fine & the same with auto ddr voltage so im guessing the bios increases auto ddr voltage to 2.7 to compensate..... if that makes sense.
