That is the CPU/NB volts, it adds volts to the memory controller.

Wow that is quite amazing since the F3-10600CL9D-4GBNT according to G.Skill Tech are only P&P Value ram not for gaming. And everyone spends so much more money for the Ripjaws and Snipers because they game and want to O/C.Last edited by Wildman95gst; 03-10-2012, 12:55 PM.

Update: I got them up to 7-8-7-21 1T @ 1.547v & 1600mhz on the Athlon x3->x4 3.48ghz and I am currently running Prime95 blend to finalize everything on that box
The x2->x4 is still @ stock freq (3.4ghz) & has the same timing and frequency as above but the DRAM value is @1.55v for this mobo. Both NB are 2400mhz
I am running memtest to tune the drive strengths then on to tune the NB further. I had to start all over again due to operator error and I may have just made another one
The system sees all the 12 gb but only 4gb is available. I tried re-seating them to see if it 'd change but no luck yet

Good news so far, I was able to Overclock the phenom II to 3.9Ghz stable(all 4 cores) in addition to the memory clock and OCing the on board graffix Unfortunately I couldn't quite get to 4ghz which was my aim, but its all good though.
Bad news : The mobo has faulty Cpu fan header and I need check this memory issue preventing me from seeing all 12gb. I reseated cpu and installed stock cooler but the cpu fan is not spinning
Thanks for the link Tradesman

I'll try reseating that too, to see if it makes a difference, I really hope that cures it so I don't have to rma the board.
I put in just the 2(x4gb) sticks of mushkins and was not able to overclock them they were stable @ 1600 9-9-9-24 1T(which is their factory setting) and would not budge an inch. Next time I'm sticking with Gskill
The OS is able to see and access all 8gb right now, so I'll add on the Gskills and slap on the A70 and reload my previous config

The reseating of the 8 pin cpu power connector did not solve the fan issue. RMA here I come!
I reset the memory to 9-9-9-24 2t 1600 @1.55v (using the DOCP Bios setting)and the system can access all 12gb now. Its actually verry snappy @ these settings
