Ram Voltage

Hello,

I have some OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C4 Dual Channel Platinum RAM, They are rated at the voltages of 1.9 - 2.0.

OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C4 Dual Channel Platinum

I previously had a Gigabyte board and had no problems finding the voltage control "RAM Overvoltage Control", but on this ASUS P5K Mobo i can't seen to find the Overvoltage control, i've tried changing the DRAM Voltage as that was the closest thing i could see, but even when doing that my RAM is still running at 1.8, anyone know how i can change the voltage to 1.9 - 2.0?

Thanks

if you've changed the DRAM voltage to 1.9-2.0v in the BIOS and then saved the new settings and rebooted, the memory should be running at that. What are you using to check the RAM voltage after you have set it in the BIOS?

Sorry for the late reply, I've been using CPU-Z.

CPU-Z only displays the spd value for RAM voltage, use everest this will tell you what the ram is actually running at.

Great, now it's displaying the correct voltage, thanks.
