How do I find the Default voltages?

[David_VI]

Hi.

Is it true that leaving most voltages set at Auto can be bad?
I've got my Vcore running at 1.38v (FSB is 1333 unlinked, 10x mult) but everything else is at AUTO.

I've been getting some BSODs and in bluescreen viewer it seems they are all the same except for one.
They are hardware malfunction ones and always the same. Am I right in thinking most of the time these BSODs are due to OC'ing?

In my googling I read somewhere that having voltages set at auto can cause an issue..

Should I change them to the defaults so I have more control?
And how do I find my default voltages? I'm using a Striker Extreme with q6700.

Thanks for your help

Sorry if its hard to read, its from a html file -

default voltage is the VID mate, which you can find by downloading coretemp. if your overclocking you most likely need higher than vid if its a big clock

I know the default for the Vcore, its 1.28 according to coretemp.
I'm running at 1.38v, does that sound right for what I have it at?

I'm looking for the voltages of all the others in the bios which have AUTO next to them... or shouldn't they be an issue?

Thanks!

you should be at the minimum vcore to give you a stable overclock on the chips core voltage. the others are best to type in manually, then you can bring them down too. most lads will tell you voltages are best left on manual

I had to read a few times before I think I understood. So you mean you've goto get the voltage as low as you can while still being stable?

These are the voltages I have control over. Found this image via google so its not my settings.

On here I see the north bridge, vtt, but no PLL? Is PLL under a different name?

Also should the others not be messed with an left on Auto then? Ram for example?

Thanks again, great help to me!
