Hello everyone, I recently got a set of 8GB Trident X DDR3-2400 RAM. I'm running this on an Asus Sabertooth Z77 with a 3770K.
At stock settings everything works nicely and I have no stability issues. I'm thinking about working with some different speed/timing/voltage combinations to see what the kit can do. But, I got thinking about the VCCIO voltage required for these modules.
My motherboard doesn't have a separate setting in the BIOS for the VCCIO. There is a VCCSA setting (On Auto it just goes to 0.925 V). I've done some reading on this board and it sounds like the VCCIO is somehow tied into the VCCSA setting? Or it's just automatic, but I'm not totally sure about this.
I know if the VCCIO is too high it can be very hard on the CPU. Since there appears to be no VCCIO setting in the BIOS, I also can't get a reading for the VCCIO as well (whether thru the BIOS or using software like ADIA64 or Asus AI Suite).
So, is the VCCIO something I need to worry about with these modules running DDR3-2400? Thanks!
