Hi 8pack mate, i thought 1.35v was the max to take the vring up to
i thought using auto was good as i was able to get 48 uncore though for some reason now i cant even get 45uncore @auto,

i wasnt sure until i tried manual changing vring to 1.3v @45uncore and still windows was unstable freezing up in random places, i was like what the hell this shouldnt be happening then i used hardware monitor and it was showing that my voltage was way to low even at 1.3 for 45 so i checked what auto was giving me, 1.456v and it was completely stable in windows but in games freezing still happening so i dont know if going higher on it is going to help but from the start of getting this board 1 half years ago its probably been using 1.456v @auto on the ring for that length of time lol

so my question at the end of all that typing is it safe to go higher i dont think 1.456v has damaged anything on the system but i need to go higher to get stable temps are fine so i dunno what to do.

if you guys are running auto on your vrings i would check out with HWINFO right away and see what your vring voltages are :/
 
My vring is on auto in the bios (1.05). I had read that 1.15v was the max you wanted to use?? HWINFO64 doesn't read it from my board so I can't see it in windows.

edit: didn't realise this was in the 8pack section when I posted. I guess anything I read about safe voltages can go out the window. :p
