Hi

Would you guys send your motherboard back if it behaved like this?

DRAM Voltage problems

Setup

Q6600 (STOCK COOLER)
2GB OCZ PLATINUIM REV 2

First Problem

The board is undervolting the Memory modules.

Second Problem

Memory voltage gradually goes back to 1.76v when shut down and mains disconnected

Example:-

The voltage gradually increases back to the set voltage when the computer is turned back on

Example:-

This is monitored over about 25 mins.

i reverted back to bios version f9 and problem 2 seems to have improved slightly it only drops to 1.88v now when shut down and main disconnected overnight, so would you guys live with these problems or return the board and buy an asus or something similar

thank you

hi

When i was using F10 bios i could not set my ram to the correct timing 4-4-4-15 as i got bsod while loading windows after overnight power off because the voltage was dropping to low to power the modules. This seems to be ok with F9 as the voltage is only dropping to about 1.88 but my problem is the board is not workings as it should and its my second board, the first one i got would not post so im kinda loosing confidence in gigabyte. I have also been in contact with gigabyte tech support and they reckon its a hardware fault with the board.

Cheers
