I have a Gigabyte DS3-P With F5 BIOS

Having a bit of trouble with my voltage settings guys....Basically in the BIOS i have set it to 1.53 and CPU-Z is showing it as 1.37......now i understand theres voltage droop ? but the voltage has stayed the same (1.36 or 1.37) everytime ive increased the voltage from the original 1.3 in BIOS to 1.53 in BIOS so its like its saying in windows that it is not changing....Do i need to just keep going higher in BIOS or is that not safe ?

Am i actually giving it 1.53 or 1.37 volts ? and am i safe to continue increasing to gain stability. ?

EDIT: its now 1.59 in BIOS and STILL !!! 1.36/1.37 in CPU-Z this cannot be right, somethign is wrong surely...I
 
Yes i also tried Gigabytes monitoring tool ETC (Easy Tune Center) Which says the voltage is 1.41 ...however there is still the same problem, in that whatever i change the voltage too in the BIOS it
stays at 1.41 in ETC. :confused:

I dont get it :(
 
Downloaded speedfan, guess what it says :p Vcore1: 1.36v, Vcore2 2.19V....whats the Vcore2 ???? so many programs tell different readings, speedfan says temps are 60 at full load whereas TAT says 57.....
 
Nope those are not enabled in BIOS....no matter what I have the voltage on in the BIOS its always 1.36 or 1.37....ive had it all the way up to 1.7 in BIOS and its had no effect. I am stumped as to what I can do....I just cant get the voltage up on this chip !!! Anyone else had this problem or who can help :confused: :confused: :( :(
 
Seems that it was the fact i was setting the increase in voltage in BIOS and then putting system voltage back to auto so it flashed green *optimized*, after leaving it to manual and having it flash red the voltage now increases with a little voltage droop.

Haha, woops, im such a nub. :rolleyes:
