Raising LDT voltage is indeed needed for high HTT, chipset volts less

[JVG81]

I've been doing some testing with different settings lately, 310*8, 290*9 and 260*10 and mostly I concentrated on the Vcore and Vdimm.

 

Conclusion is that in order to get stability from 290 HTT and above the LDT needed on step from stock volts. Chipset needed a bump only at around 310 HTT.

 

I'm posting this for your information, not to 'kick in some open doors'. Your results may be different but this is finally some real proof that for high HTT you do need to bump these settings a bit. I only call for stability if it's 12 hours prime stable. the difference between raising the LDT volts or leaving it is strong: crashing in 3 hours or priming forever.

very nice. thanks for your test results. i think it will help alot of folks out.

Well, could have told you that...I posted my experience on going up to 400mhz on HTT, did require a step up to 1.3 volt on the LTD...everything else on stock.

 

These boards are truly amazing! :nod:

You went up all the way to 400 on 1.3 LDT? Wow that's nice, did it also give you any benefits or was it just for testing?
