Great - be with you in approx an hour maybe earlier.

Great thanks, no rush though, I'll be back on 7.30ish if that's any good with you @Plec

ready whenever you are mate

Games ran fine. Apart from aoe 3 crashing mid game. cpu temp during gaming is 55-60, gpu temp whilst gaming 70-75. Everything seems to be running smoothly as far as i can tell.

when aoe3 crashed, it popped up an error box saying something about memory, cant remember exactly what it said though as i accidently clicked off it.

temps are lower playing banished and aoe3

ive deleted the annoying cotana too haha

There's no option in there for DRAM/DDR voltage

Edit: In the advanced voltage settings, DRAM Voltage is on auto, 1.200V

What does the Frequency read now?

Memory frequency 3200MHz

See edit in last post @Plec

dmann · 29 Aug 2017 at 20:37

It's not letting me adjust anything, hitting return on the option but nothing happening?

dmann · 29 Aug 2017 at 20:39

Ok, I've typed 1.35, it's changed to 1.350v and next to it on the right its saying 1.200v

Save and exit??

dmann · 29 Aug 2017 at 20:47

Switched on and off about 5 times that time, got a bit worried :eek:

Yes - but you didn't flash to F8 (you had trouble downloading it - and that has better memory compatibility. We had to settle for F7. So we'll try that in a couple of days).

okay sounds like a plan

Plec said:
Reboot again - let me know process.

booted up perfect again
