  • 2.02v or 2.08v? F2-8500CL5D-2GBPK

    Motherboard - ASRock A780LM AM2+/AM2 AMD RS780L (760G) BIOS v1.50

    My BIOS only gives the option of 2.02v or 2.08v. Should I favor one over the other? I was thinking 2.02v may generate slightly less heat and prolong RAM life, but maybe 2.08v would provide increased stability. Your advice would be appreciated.

    (Funny thing, at 1066 1.8v, the system would always crash during gaming, but would pass any memory test flawlessly, including memtest+, wprime, and prime95. Drove me crazy thinking it had to be some other component in the system, but looks like voltage was the problem all along)

    Neither, will require 2.14V. Your motherboard won't necessarily supply this amount, it will probably only put out 2.10V which is what this kit needs.

        You can test 2.08V to see if it will be stable, but if not, keep it at the next level up.
